सोऽवेदहं वाव सृष्टिरस्म्यहं हीदं सर्वमसृक्षीति ततः सृष्टिरभवत्सृष्ट्याः हास्यैतस्यां भवति य एवं वेद ॥ ५ ॥

In plain words

He realized: 'I alone am creation, for I have projected all this forth.' And thus creation came into being. Whoever understands this truth truly becomes a creator within this universe.
