Verse 2.17.50

विततता हृदयस्य महामतेर्हरिहराञ्जजलक्षशतैरपि ।
तुलनमेति न मुक्तिमतो यतः प्रविततास्ति निरुत्तमवस्तुनः ॥ ५० ॥

vitatatā hṛdayasya mahāmaterhariharāñjajalakṣaśatairapi |
tulanameti na muktimato yataḥ pravitatāsti niruttamavastunaḥ || 50 ||

It is not even possible to thousands of Haris, Haras and Brahmas, to equal the great minded sage in the extent of his comprehensive soul;because the liberated have their chief good (of internal joy) stretched to a far greater limit than any.
