Verse 7.12.21

ससुरासुरगन्धर्वविद्याधरमहोरगम् ।
जडात्मपवनस्पन्दि परचेतनचेतितम् ॥ २१ ॥

sasurāsuragandharvavidyādharamahoragam |
jaḍātmapavanaspandi paracetanacetitam || 21 ||

It is studded all over with bodies of gods and demigods, gandharvas, vidyadharas and great serpents; it is inert (dull matter of itself), and is moved by the all moving air of sutratma—the all connecting spirit of God; and is animated by the all enlivening anima of the Supreme soul.
