Verse 3.119.20

न महाभूतता काचिन्न च कारणता क्वचित् ।
न च त्रिकालकलना न भावाभाववस्तुता ॥ २० ॥

na mahābhūtatā kācinna ca kāraṇatā kvacit |
na ca trikālakalanā na bhāvābhāvavastutā || 20 ||

He is no elementary principle, nor is he any cause as the material or efficient. He is none of the three times of past, present and future but all; nor is he anything in being or not-being.
