Verse 6.113.6

वृद्धिं यातः स गगने कल्पयत्यात्मतां गतः ।
अनात्मात्माभिधानेन तेनासौ यतते ततः ॥ ६ ॥

vṛddhiṃ yātaḥ sa gagane kalpayatyātmatāṃ gataḥ |
anātmātmābhidhānena tenāsau yatate tataḥ || 6 ||

It is from this also that there rises the subtle individual soul with the sense of its egoism, as the vibration of current winds springs from the motionless air; and then as it grows up in time in the same element, it comes to believe its having an individual soul and a personality of its own.
