Verse 3.61.31

नास्तमेति न चोदेति क्वचित्किंचित्कदाचन ।
सर्वं शान्तमजं ब्रह्म चिद्धनं सुशिलाघनम् ॥ ३१ ॥

nāstameti na codeti kvacitkiṃcitkadācana |
sarvaṃ śāntamajaṃ brahma ciddhanaṃ suśilāghanam || 31 ||

There is nothing that rises or sets anywhere, nor appears or disappears at any time; but everything is unborn at all times, and lies quiet in the Divine Intellect, which is as solid as a massive rock.
