Verse 3.5.19

प्रशान्ते चिद्धने यस्मिस्फुरन्त्यमृतवर्षिणि ।
धाराजलानि भूतानि सृष्टयस्तडितः स्फुटाः ॥ १९ ॥

praśānte ciddhane yasmisphurantyamṛtavarṣiṇi |
dhārājalāni bhūtāni sṛṣṭayastaḍitaḥ sphuṭāḥ || 19 ||

It is that colossus of intelligence, which like a cloud sheds ambrosial draughts of delight to soothe our souls, and showers forth innumerable beings as rain drops on all sides. It bursts into incessant flashes showing the prospects of repeated creations which are as (momentary as) flashes of lightenings.
