Verse 7.34.12

यथा स्वावयवानेव सर्वानवयवी भवेत् ।
नित्यानवयवं शान्तं ब्रह्मैवेदं तथा जगत् ॥ १२ ॥

yathā svāvayavāneva sarvānavayavī bhavet |
nityānavayavaṃ śāntaṃ brahmaivedaṃ tathā jagat || 12 ||

As the integral soul becomes a component body, by its assuming to itself all its members and limbs; so the eternally undivided spirit of God, appears to be multiplied in all parts of the world, and various works of creation.
