Rgveda X 90 3 (puruSa-suukta): etaavaan asya mahimaa ato jyaayaaMsh ca puuruSaH [sic!] paado 'sya vishvaa bhuutaani *tripaad asyaamRtaM divi*. A.A.Macdonell's translation: Such is his greatness, and more than that is PuruSa. A fourth of him is all beings, three-fourths of him are what is immortal in heaven.
