Verse 5.23.5

नापो न ज्वलनो नाशा नोर्ध्वं नाधो न विष्टपम् ।
न लोको नातपो नाहं न हरीन्द्रहरादयः ॥ ५ ॥

nāpo na jvalano nāśā nordhvaṃ nādho na viṣṭapam |
na loko nātapo nāhaṃ na harīndraharādayaḥ || 5 ||

There is no water, no land, no fire nor air; nor are there the sides of the compass, nor the regions you call above and below. There is no light nor shadow, nor the peoples, nor the gods Hari, Indra and Siva, nor any of the inferior deities or demigods there.
