"But the universes side by side at any given moment, each harbouring a Brahma and an Indra: who will estimate the number of these? Beyond the farthest vision, crowding outer space, the universes come and go, an innumerable host.
Like delicate boats they float on the fathomless, pure waters that form the body of Vishnu. Out of every hair-pore of that
body a universe bubbles and breaks. Will you presume to count them?
Will you number the gods in all those worlds - the worlds present and the worlds past?"
