Leaving his material body, he entered into the nether world. Coming in contact with the earth, he created different force and perfume arose from his puss, the Deodar tree from his bones, grass from this phlegm, the Marakata jewel from his bile and the black iron from his liver. All the worlds have been established with these three substances. The clouds were made from his nails and corals from his arteries,
स तच्छरीरं संत्यज्य प्रविवेश धरां तदा। भूमिं स्पृष्टासृजद् धातून पृथक् पृथगतीव हि॥ पूयात् स गन्धं तेजश्च अस्थिभ्यो देवदारु च। श्लेष्मणः स्फाटिकं तस्य पित्तान्मारकतं तथा॥ यकृत् कृष्णायसं तस्य त्रिभिरेव वभुः प्रजाः। नखास्तस्याभ्रपटलं शिराजलानि विदुमम्॥
