In the beginning, the universe was nothing but a man whose name was Self. One day Self looked _41_and saw that there was nothing else in the universe_42_ himself. So he shouted “It is I”, meaning that the universe was _43_ and he was the universe.
But when he heard his own voice, Self became_44_ . This is why even today we are afraid when we are alone. But then Self thought for a while and said, “ Since there is no one here but myself, what is _45_ to fear?” So he was no longer afraid of being _46_.
But Self was not happy, and we still believe that when we are alone we cannot feel_47_. Self wanted_48_ else to be with him. Self was quite big and so he _49_ himself into two parts. One part was like a man and the other part was like a _50_.
The man held the woman in his arms and from them came the human race. But the woman became afraid and so she decided to _51_. First she turned herself into a cow. Then the man turned himself into a bull and together they made all the cows in the world. Then she became a horse and he also_52_ to a horse and from them _53_all the others. She became a goat then a sheep, and in the end every_54_ on the earth. The man also changed into the male of every animal and kept_55_ her. From the two of them came all the other creatures(生物)on the earth.
Finally, the man stopped and thought for a while. He then _56_ that he was the_57_ of the world, for from himself and his other _58_ ,the woman, came all _59_ things. The ancient Indians believed that once a person understood that he was the one that could create things in the world, he would be very_60_.
