Verse 3.9.76

अजमजरमनाद्यं शाश्वतं ब्रह्म नित्यं शिवममलममोघं वन्यमुच्चैरनिन्द्यम् ।
सकलकलनशून्यं कारणं कारणानामनुभवनमवेद्यं वेदनं विश्वमन्तः ॥ ७६ ॥

ajamajaramanādyaṃ śāśvataṃ brahma nityaṃ śivamamalamamoghaṃ vanyamuccairanindyam |
sakalakalanaśūnyaṃ kāraṇaṃ kāraṇānāmanubhavanamavedyaṃ vedanaṃ viśvamantaḥ || 76 ||

Know it as increate and indestructible, and without beginning and end. It is the eternal and everlasting Brahma and bliss itself. It is immaculate and infallible, highly adorable and unblamable in its nature. It is beyond all description and a mere void in its form. It is the cause of causes and a notion of something that is unknowable. It is the understanding, and the inward faculty of the intellect or the mind.
