Kashyapa said Rudra exists in the hearts of men. He destroys the bodies themselves in which he lives as also the bodies of others. Rudra is like visitations of the sky and his form is like that of the wind-god.
कश्यप उवाच आत्मा रुद्रो हृदयो मानवानां स्वं स्वं देहं परदेहं न हन्ति। वातोत्पातैः सदृशं रुद्रमार्ह र्देवैर्जीमूतैः सदृशं रूपमस्य॥
