Shiva Purana
अभवन्महदादीनि तत्त्वानि च यथाक्रमम् ॥ तेभ्यस्स्युरण्डपिण्डानि त्वसंख्यानि शिवाज्ञया ॥ अधिष्ठितान्यनन्ताद्यैर्विद्येशैश्चक्रवर्तिभिः ॥ २५ ॥
The elements, beginning with the great, were gradually created. By the order of Lord Śiva, innumerable eggs will be produced from these bodies. They are occupied by the emperors of the universe, headed by Ananta and others.
