Verse 7.105.41

ऊष्मरूपो यथा वह्निर्निरूष्मा नोपलभ्यते ।
चिन्मयं तु तथा चेत्यं चिच्छून्यं नोपलभ्यते ॥ ४१ ॥

ūṣmarūpo yathā vahnirnirūṣmā nopalabhyate |
cinmayaṃ tu tathā cetyaṃ cicchūnyaṃ nopalabhyate || 41 ||

So also we have the conception of fire by means of its heat, without which we have no concept of it; such too is our idea of God that he is the Intellect, and beside this we can form no idea of him.
