Sūtra translation
And because the world does not rest on any other than Brahman, the Lord is not merely a favourer as (Parjanya is) in the case of grass, etc.
From the texts, " Whatever there is of the world that is seen or heard of, Narayana stands pervading it, in’ and out.” “ In Brahman alone this (world) has risen, on Brahman it stands, into Brahman it retires, Brahman alone is below* Brahman alone is above, Brahman is in the middle, Brahman is on every side; (and) Brahman indeed is all this (i.e., all this is wholly dependent upon;Brahman,) (Bri IV., V.),etc., it is plain the world does not depend on any other than Brahman. The Lord cannot be said to be only a mere favourer like the cloud (Parjanya) in the case of grass, etc. “ The Lord Hari who rules the worlds, again wishing to create the world of names and forms supported by Himself destitute of gross names and forms, accompanied, (out of grace), Lakshmi impelled by His (own) power—Lakshmi who, being under the control of the Lord and keeping control over the souls in bondage was about to proceed with the work of creation." From this and the following statement in the Bhagavata “ Matter, action and time," etc., implied by the word, ‘ and/ the very existence, etc., of Prakriti are apparently in the gift of the Lord. Now the system of the Lokayata or Charvaka is refuted.
