SRI BRAHMA-SAMHITA

Verse 14

praty-andam evam ekamsad ekamsad visati svayam
sahasra-murddha visvatma mahavisnuh sanatanah [14]

Translation: That Maha-Vishnu enters into each and every universe (or cosmic egg) in His individual plenary portions. All those divine portions are His supramundane almighty form—the eternal form of Maha-Vishnu with thousands upon thousands of heads—the soul of the universe.

Purport: Maha-Vishnu reclining on the causal ocean is the plenary portion of Maha-Sankarsana; as many universes emanate from Him, He enters into every one of them as His personal portions. Every one of those portions is the Garbhodakasayi purusa, who is in all respects similar to Maha-Vishnu. Garbhodakasayi Vishnu is known as the aggregate antaryami, or the collective, omnipresent Supersoul of the universes.
