11.12.18

yathānalaḥ khe 'nila-bandhur uṣmā balena dāruṇy adhimathyamānaḥ /
aṇuḥ prajāto haviṣā samedhate tathaiva me vyaktir iyaṃ hi vāṇī //

18. Just as fire is in a subtle form in the sky as warmth, and in a piece of wood when churned with strength and with the help of Vayu is born as a spark and then blows into a big fire through offerings, so is My manifestation in the form of Speech (Vedic speech).

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
