Verse 6.60.7

श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
यद्ब्रह्म सर्वदेहस्थं भुङ्क्ते पिबति वल्गति ।
आदत्ते विनिहन्त्यन्तः संवित्संवेद्यवर्जितम् ॥ ७ ॥

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
yadbrahma sarvadehasthaṃ bhuṅkte pibati valgati |
ādatte vinihantyantaḥ saṃvitsaṃvedyavarjitam || 7 ||

Vashistha replied:—The God that dwells in all bodies, moves them to their actions, and receives their food and drink in himself, that produces all things and annihilates them at last, is of course unknowable to our consciousness.
