Verse 10

¹⁰In that egg, set down in the waters, I came to be. From my navel came the lotus called the All, and there the self-born one. ¹¹He, joined to austerity, by passion and by my favour, self of all, made the worlds with their guardians, in three: the earth, the mid-air and the sky. ¹²The sky was the home of the gods, and the mid-air the place of the spirits; the earth-world was for men and the rest; and what is beyond the three is for the perfected. ¹³Below the earth the Lord made a home for the demons and the serpents. All the courses of works, which are of the three strands, lie within the three worlds. ¹⁴The courses of yoga, of austerity and of laying down, which are without stain, are Mahar, Jana, Tapas and Satya; and the course of the yoga of devotion is to me.
