English Translation - Dr. S. Sankaranarayan
14.4. O son of Kunti !  Whatever manifestations spring up in all the wombs, of them the mighty Brahman is the womb and I am the father laying the seed.


English Translation of Commentary  - Dr. S. Sankaranarayan
14.4 Sarvayonisu etc. In all the wombs  (whatever gives birth to anything), the expansive Energy of the Bhagavat exists as the prime cause; and hence It is the Mother having the innate nature of giving birth to the entire world process.  But I am the Father, the Energetic, the Inexplicable.
