saḥ sarva-gaḥ api jagat-dravya-pāvakaḥ eva na adahati
26. By its (the supreme Self's) consciousness (saṃvit), the intrinsic nature (sattā) of fire (vahni) exists; hence, its form is never devoid of fire. Even though it is all-pervading, that fire (pāvaka) which consumes the substance (dravya) of the world (jagat) does not actually burn (adahati).
