This created being is also full. Brahman is infinitude and is therefore full. That which proceeds from the full or the infinite must be either real or unreal. If it is real, it must also be full, because a part cannot be ever-enduring, and that which is not always enduring is not real. If it is unreal, nothing proceeds at all.

Slokam:-16. Pusanne-karse  yama  surya  praja-patrya, Vyuha  rasmin  samuha  tejah yatte  rupam  kalyana-tamam  tatte  pasyami  yo  sa-vasau  purusah  so  ham-asmi. O  Pusan  (Sun, Nourisher),  O  Sole  Seer,  O  Controller  of  All,  Surya,  Son  of Prajapati, disperse Thy  rays  and  gather  up  Thy  burning  light..... I behold  Thy  glorious  form....the Purusa  within  Thee, He am I.

The next three slokams-15 to 17 together constitute the sixth wave of thought in the scripture which is a call of the mortal man to the glory of the immortal Self in himself to reveal itself in the joy of Self-experience. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ Slokam-15.( very important slokam, to be recited in the temple before the Deity) Hiranmayena   patrena   satya-syapi-hitam   mukham, ta ttvam   pusanna-pavrnu   satya-dharmaya   drstaye.     The face of Truth is covered by a golden lid; remove, O  Sun, that (covering) for me, the practitioner of Truth, so that I may  behold it.

Another thing, they say, from the worship of the unmanifest; thus have we heard from the wise who have explained that to us.
