Verse 3.61.18

शुद्धं सकृत्प्रभातान्तर्दृश्यमध्यमनामयम् ।
उदयास्तमयोन्मुक्तं ब्रह्म तिष्ठत्यनिष्ठितम् ॥ १८ ॥

śuddhaṃ sakṛtprabhātāntardṛśyamadhyamanāmayam |
udayāstamayonmuktaṃ brahma tiṣṭhatyaniṣṭhitam || 18 ||

The other states in which God presents himself to our intellects are that, He is Holy, infinitely glorious, seen within us,{GL_NOTE:73133:} and without beginning, middle and end; that, He has no rising nor setting, and subsists of Himself without a substratum and as the substratum of all. Sruti. So says the mystic sufi:—I sought him everywhere but found him nowhere; I then looked within myself, and saw him there—as his seat was there.
