10.87.49.p1
yo 'syotprekṣaka ādi-madhya-nidhane yo 'vyakta-jīveśvaro $ yaḥ sṛṣṭvedam anupraviśya ṛṣiṇā cakre puraḥ śāsti tāḥ &
50. One should incessantly contemplate that Hari, who, by His absolute nature, distances Maya from Himself and who is the one abode of fearlessness, who lays out the plan of this Universe with reference to its beginning, middle and end, who is the subtle Jiva and Isvara who having created this, enters into it along with the Jiva and creates bodies for him and controls them and having resorted to whom the Jiva by his devotion rescues himself from Avidya, leaving her, just as a bird in sleep leaves the nest.
