Verse 3.60.62

शून्योदयास्तमयवस्तु तमःप्रकाशं दिक्कालरूप्यपि सदैकमनादिशुद्धम् ।
आद्यन्तमध्यरहितं स्थितमच्छमम्बु सौम्यत्ववीचिवलनाढ्यमिवैकमेव ॥ ६२ ॥

śūnyodayāstamayavastu tamaḥprakāśaṃ dikkālarūpyapi sadaikamanādiśuddham |
ādyantamadhyarahitaṃ sthitamacchamambu saumyatvavīcivalanāḍhyamivaikameva || 62 ||

There is but one Being (SAT), who is Holy and without beginning; and who, though he appears to be of the forms of light and darkness, and of space and time, doth never rise nor set anywhere. He is without beginning, middle or end; and remains as a vast expanse of water, exhibiting itself in its waves and currents.
