They used to recognize the year.
Now, before that, day and night were joined together, undistinguished.

With 'phaḷ', the egg broke open.
That which was its lower shell became this earth.
Now that which was the upper became that sky.
And that which was between became this intermediate space.
The speech that he spoke as he was being born became the three Vedas.
Whatever speech this deity spoke in the beginning as he was being born, that indeed became the brahman.
He saw: 'A great support indeed I have created—these worlds.
Whatever I shall create from now on will find a support.'
'Come, let me create,' [he thought].
He went over himself with the mind.
In him two drops arose: the two spring months.

He said to them: 'Be created!'

'In which direction, Father?'

'In this one.'

With this speech 'om', they were created.

Of the two, that was the food, that the light; that shone upon them.

Then the two became sovereignty.

He who knows thus indeed becomes sovereignty.

With the mind alone he again went over himself.
