Verse 6.11.28

त्वत्तामत्ते तथा न स्तो ब्रह्मणि स्पन्दरूपिणि ।
यथावर्तमृते तोये न किंचिन्म्रियते क्वचित् ॥ २८ ॥

tvattāmatte tathā na sto brahmaṇi spandarūpiṇi |
yathāvartamṛte toye na kiṃcinmriyate kvacit || 28 ||

Myself, thyself and himself, and all others, are but the breaths of the universal spirit; and they heave and then subside to rest as waves of the sea; but the spirit of God, like the water of the deep, neither rises nor falls as ourselves or the fleeting waves at any time.
