"on account of supereminence of the deity, a single soul (aatma ) is praised in various ways. other gods are individual limbs of a single soul. or else as people say seers praise objects according to the multiplicities of their original nature as well as from its universality. they are produced from each other. they are original forms of each other. they are produced from action. they are produced from soul. soul is their chariot, their horse, their weapon, their arrows. soul is indeed all in all of gods."
