Verse 7.178.55

पद्मलीला जगदिव प्रकचन्ति जगन्ति यत् ।
चिन्मात्राद्ब्रह्मणः स्वस्मादन्यानि न मनागपि ॥ ५५ ॥

padmalīlā jagadiva prakacanti jaganti yat |
cinmātrādbrahmaṇaḥ svasmādanyāni na manāgapi || 55 ||

As the great creator evolves the world, like the petals of his lotiform navel, in the first formative period of creation; so doth the divine intellect, unfold all the parts of the mundane system from its own penetralia, which are therefore not distinct from itself.
