etan nānāvatārāṇāṁ

nidhānaṁ bījam avyayam

yasyāṁśāṁśena sṛjyante

deva-tiryaṅ-narādayaḥ

Translation

This form [the second manifestation of the puruṣa] is the source and indestructible seed of multifarious incarnations within the universe. From the particles and portions of this form, different living entities, like demigods, men and others, are created.
