अक्षुब्धस्वानिलालोकजलभूशान्तिशालिनीम् ।
ततां शून्यां महारम्भां ब्रह्मसत्तामिवामलाम् ॥ ६ ॥

akṣubdhasvānilālokajalabhūśāntiśālinīm |
tatāṃ śūnyāṃ mahārambhāṃ brahmasattāmivāmalām || 6 ||

The extended waste appeared as the boundless and spotless immensity of Brahma, by its unrestricted vacuity, howling winds, burning heat and light, its seeming water in the sand, and untrodden ground resting in peace.
