Prashna • Chapter 1 • Shloka 4
तस्मै स होवाच - - - प्रजाकामो वै प्रजापतिः स तपोऽतप्यत स तपस्तप्त्वा स मिथुनमुत्पादयते।
रयिं च प्राणञ्चेति एतौ मे बहुधा प्रजाः करिष्यत इति ॥
Rishi Pippalad told him:
" 'The Supreme Father' (Prajapati) desired praja (sons), so he produced his penance power and with the energy of his penance power he produced twins (pairs of creatures) 'prana' meaning 'life', which is the 'masculine essence' and 'Rayi', meaning 'the inert essence', which is the 'feminine essence', and he said, 'These will create for me many kinds of subjects."
