These were the Gods that He created; they fell into this great Ocean, and Hunger and Thirst leaped upon them.
Then they said to Him, “Command unto us an habitation that we may dwell secure and eat of food.”
'He' brought them a cow, but they said: "Indeed it is never enough for us."
'He' brought them a horse, but they said: "Indeed even this is not enough for us."
'He' brought human for them, and they said:
Aho!
It is really beautifully made!
Man is indeed very beautifully and cleverly created.
Then 'Paramatma-Chaitanya' (Supreme Conciousness) said to them (devas or demi-gods or senses):
You all enter into it according to your respective abodes.
Fire became Speech and entered into the mouth; Air became Breath and entered into the nostrils; the Sun became Sight and entered into the eyes; the Quarters became Hearing and entered into the ears; Herbs of healing and the plants and trees became Hairs and entered into the skin; the Moon became Mind and entered into the heart; Death became Apana, the lower breathing, and entered into the navel; the Waters became Seed (semen) and entered into the genital organ.
Then Hunger and Thirst said to the Spirit: “Instruct us also an adobe”.
But He said to them: “Even among these gods do I apportion you; lo! I have made you sharers in their godhead.”
Therefore, to whatever god the oblation is offered, Hunger and Thirst surely have their share in the offering.
