2.8.8

āsīdyadudarāt padmaṃ lokasaṃsthānalakṣaṇam /
yāvān ayaṃ vai puruṣa iyattāvayavaiḥ pṛthak /
tāvān asāviti proktaḥ saṃsthāvayavavān iva //

8. So also Iswara from whose navel sprang the lotus which represents the formation and the arrangements of the world, was described as having the same forms and the same number of members of the body as man, only the measurements being His own and separate; (then) what is the difference between Him and the man of limited nature?

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
