Verse 7.138.37

प्राणीकृतः स्वयमयं ननु चेतसात्मा देहीकृतस्त्रिभुवनीकृत एव नाद्यः ।
देहीकृतः खवपुरेव गिरीकृतश्च स्वप्नेषु कल्पितपुरीष्वनुभूतमेतत् ॥ ३७ ॥

prāṇīkṛtaḥ svayamayaṃ nanu cetasātmā dehīkṛtastribhuvanīkṛta eva nādyaḥ |
dehīkṛtaḥ khavapureva girīkṛtaśca svapneṣu kalpitapurīṣvanubhūtametat || 37 ||

Now behold, O Rama the almighty power of the mind, which at first made itself (or became) a living being by its breathing; and then an intelligent being, by its power of thinking; and next became the living soul, with its body; it made the three worlds, and became the prime male in the form of Brahma; it became embodied from its aerial form, in the shape of Virat; thus it created every thing in itself of its own will, as men produce all things in their imagination, and see the cities of their fancy in dream.
