धानादिव वटो यस्मात् प्रादुरासीदिदं जगत्।
स ब्रह्मा स शिवो विष्णुः स परः सर्व एव सः || १० ||
Like a fig tree from seed, (He) from whom this moving world appears existing,
He is Brahma, He is Siva (and) Vishnu, He is the Supreme, so, He is the Totality.
Commentary
In this particular verse the sage uses the example of a fig tree arising from a seed. In verse 3 he also used this example to explain cosmic emanation. The Anuttaratrimsikasastra gives a similar example: "Just as a great Banyan tree is potentially lodged in a small seed, so the animate and inanimate cosmos resides as a seed in the heart."
"He is Brahma, etc." shows that the Absolute is the source and true identity of the Gods. The Adhyatmika Upanishad (verse 20) has a similar verse.
"He is the Totality", means the same as the Great Saying of the Upanishads, "All this is the Absolute", or as Sankaracharya declares in the Vivekachudamani (verse 388): "He is Brahma, He is Vishnu, He is Indra, He is Siva; He is all this cosmos, no entity exists but Him." The totality is also the Goddess who," generated this Father of the Summit (Siva)," as the Devi Upanishad declares.
