In the [[Cosmological Notes]], [[Morya|Mahatma M.]] writes:
 
<blockquote>Swayambu occupies every part of [[space]] which itself is boundless and [[Eternity|eternal]], hence must be space in one sense. Swayambu becomes [[Puruṣa|Purush]] when coming in contact with [[matter]].<ref>Vicente Hao Chin, Jr., ''The Mahatma Letters to A.P. Sinnett in chronological sequence'' No. LBS-Appendix II (Quezon City: Theosophical Publishing House, 1993), 509.</ref></blockquote>
