Verse 7.34.40

यथा भावविकाराभाश्चित्पराः सर्गतास्तथा ।
सर्वे बीजानि दृष्टान्तास्तद्रूपा एव तन्मयाः ॥ ४० ॥

yathā bhāvavikārābhāścitparāḥ sargatāstathā |
sarve bījāni dṛṣṭāntāstadrūpā eva tanmayāḥ || 40 ||

As the thoughts are but the various modifications of the mind, so the creation is a modality of the divine Intellect; and in this case all kinds of seeds serve as instances, of having their products of the same nature.
