And so they say, 'Pragâpati, having created these worlds, was firmly established on the earth. For him these plants were ripened into food: that he ate. He became pregnant. From the upper vital airs he created the gods, and from the lower vital airs the mortal creatures.' In whatever way he created thereafter, so he created; but indeed it was Pragâpati who created everything here, whatsoever exists.
