सस्पन्दा चित्तदभिधा निःस्पन्दा त्वियमातता ।
तुर्यातीतपदारूढा वाचा वक्तुं न पार्यते ॥ ५९ ॥

saspandā cittadabhidhā niḥspandā tviyamātatā |
turyātītapadārūḍhā vācā vaktuṃ na pāryate || 59 ||

The intellect is ever busy and active, from which it derives its name (chit—intellect). But the inactive spirit which is all pervasive, is both inexpressible as well as inconceivable, owing to its devoid of all attributes.
