परमात्मपदं क्षेत्रं क्षेत्रं मायामयस्य तत् ।
एतस्मात्प्रथमोद्भिन्नादंकुरोऽनुभवाकृतिः ॥ १६ ॥

paramātmapadaṃ kṣetraṃ kṣetraṃ māyāmayasya tat |
etasmātprathamodbhinnādaṃkuro'nubhavākṛtiḥ || 16 ||

The field of its growth is the supreme soul, which is the common source of all entities; but that field being filled with illusion, the mind is deluded to believe itself as the first born sprout springing out of this field.
