Verse 3.65.9

अनाख्यस्य स्वरूपस्य सर्वाशातिगतात्मनः ।
चेत्योन्मुखतया चित्तं चित्ताज्जीवत्वकल्पनम् ॥ ९ ॥

anākhyasya svarūpasya sarvāśātigatātmanaḥ |
cetyonmukhatayā cittaṃ cittājjīvatvakalpanam || 9 ||

The mind is inclined of its own tendency, to assign a living soul (and also a body) to the Divine Spirit; which is devoid of appellation, form or figure, and is beyond comprehension.
