Verse 5.52.38

दृश्यते यस्य नेयत्ता न नाम परिकल्पना ।
नैकता नान्यतैवेह न महत्ता न चाणुता ॥ ३८ ॥

dṛśyate yasya neyattā na nāma parikalpanā |
naikatā nānyataiveha na mahattā na cāṇutā || 38 ||

Its magnitude is not to be known, nor has it any appellation of its own; it is neither the one nor the other, nor an immensity nor minuteness (but is greater than the greatest, and minuter than the minutest).{GL_NOTE:73160:}
