दिक्कालाद्यनवच्छिन्नमदृष्टोभयकोटिकम् ।
एकं ब्रह्मैव हि जगत्स्थितं द्वित्वमुपागतम् ॥ २३ ॥

dikkālādyanavacchinnamadṛṣṭobhayakoṭikam |
ekaṃ brahmaiva hi jagatsthitaṃ dvitvamupāgatam || 23 ||

There exists but one Brahma, unbounded by space and time; He is never limited by either of them; and is the world himself, though it appears to be a distinct duality beside Him.
