(RV 5.19.1)
abhyavasthāĥ prajāyante pra vavrer vavrish-chiketa, upasthe mātur-vi
chaşhţe.
State upon state is born, covering upon covering has become
conscious and aware, in
the lap of the mother he sees.
The Divine Soul is at first involved and hidden in the folds of
Nescience. Gradually with the movements of upward evolution, the
involved states of inconscience, obscurity and darkness unroll
themselves, forming gradation after gradation of the emerging
consciousness; the areas of awareness grow and spread out
displacing those that were lost in unawareness. The soul in the
lap of Mother-Nature watches as the pathway is formed.
