The inventory's last look is at the living earth: samudrā girayaś ca sarve — seas and mountains (the immovable and the immeasurable); sindhavaḥ sarva-rūpāḥ — "rivers of every kind" (the flowing and life-giving); sarvāḥ oṣadhayo rasaś ca — "all the herbs and the sap": rasa — sap, savour, essence: the moisture of life that runs in stalks and veins.
And the purpose of the sap is disclosed marvellously: yenaiṣa bhūtais tiṣṭhate hy antarātmā — "by which this inner Ātman abides among the elements": fed by the sap of herbs the body stands — and in the standing body the inner Spirit abides: the dew-moisture of the earth turns out to be the handmaid of the divine Presence: every sip and morsel is the upkeep of a temple in which the Antarātmā lives.
So the second wave of the answer to Śaunaka concludes. The first muṇḍaka said: know the Imperishable — the Womb of all; the second has so far shown: out of the Puruṣa comes everything — from the Vedas to the barley, from the gods to the river silt. It remains to pronounce the identity itself — and the next verse will say it outright: puruṣa evedaṁ viśvam — "the Puruṣa is all this".
