4.11.17
nimitta-mātraṃ tatrāsīn nirguṇaḥ puruṣarṣabhaḥ /
vyaktāvyaktam idaṃ viśvaṃ yatra bhramati lohavat //
17. (The presence of) the Foremost Person destitute of all qualities was only a circumstance favourable to it (creation, preservation or destruction); all this universe of manifest and unmanifest things is in a state of motion or activity on account of His presence, just as a piece of iron is thrown into a state of activity in the presence of the loadstone.
