AITAREYA UPANISHAD · 1.1.3

स ईक्षतेमे नु लोका लोकपालान्नु सृजा इति । सोऽद्भ्य एव पुरुषं समुद्धृत्यामूर्छयत् ॥ ३ ॥

sa īkṣateme nu lokā lokapālānnu sṛjā iti । so’dbhya eva puruṣaṃ samuddhṛtyāmūrchayat ॥ 3 ॥

The Spirit thought, “Lo, these are the worlds; and now will I make me guardians for my worlds.” Therefore he gathered the Purusha out of the waters and gave Him shape and substance.
