37. Indeed, this self (ātman), by the mind itself, is transformed into a living being, embodied, and even made into the three worlds; it is not its primordial state. This phenomenon is experienced in dreams, in imagined cities, where the ether-body itself is made into a physical body and even transformed into a mountain.
