Verse 7.188.21

अनादिमत्परं ब्रह्म न सद्यन्नासदुच्यते ।
तदेवेदमनाद्यन्तं तथास्थितमवेदनम् ॥ २१ ॥

anādimatparaṃ brahma na sadyannāsaducyate |
tadevedamanādyantaṃ tathāsthitamavedanam || 21 ||

It was all the appearance of that eternal and transcendental Brahma, and not of the unreal phenomenal which is never real; it is the very Brahma, which is without its beginning and end, and appearing in a light quite unintelligible to us.
