45The Usnih was from the hairs of the mighty one, and the Gayatri from his skin; the Tristubh from the flesh, the Anustubh from the sinews, the Jagati from the bone of the lord of creatures. 46The Pankti rose from the marrow, and the Brhati came from the breath. The stopped sounds became his life, and the vowels are said to be his body. 47The hissing sounds they call his senses, and the in-between sounds the strength of his self. The seven notes came to be out of the play of the lord of creatures. 48Beyond him, whose self is the Brahman that is sound and whose self is both shown and unshown, Brahman shines out, spread wide, swollen with powers of many kinds.
