Verse 6.52.38

अनन्तस्यैकरूपस्य सतः सूक्ष्मस्य खादपि ।
आत्मनः परमेशस्य किं कथं केन नश्यति ॥ ३८ ॥

anantasyaikarūpasya sataḥ sūkṣmasya khādapi |
ātmanaḥ parameśasya kiṃ kathaṃ kena naśyati || 38 ||

It is immortal and uniform with itself, and more rare and subtile than the air and vacuity; the soul which is the form of the great God himself, is never and in no way destroyed by any body.
