Verse 3.13.50

नाधेयं तत्र नाधारो न दृश्यं न च द्रष्टृता ।
ब्रह्माण्डं नास्ति न ब्रह्मा न च वैतण्डिका क्वचित् ॥ ५० ॥

nādheyaṃ tatra nādhāro na dṛśyaṃ na ca draṣṭṛtā |
brahmāṇḍaṃ nāsti na brahmā na ca vaitaṇḍikā kvacit || 50 ||

He, who is neither the container nor the contained, nor the view of the world; who is neither the world nor its creator (Brahma), and about whom there can be no dispute nor disputant; is verily the unknown God.
