महाभारतः       mahābhārataḥ - book-12, chapter-199, verse-31

दिवाकरो गुणमुपलभ्य निर्गुणो यथा भवेद्व्यपगतरश्मिमण्डलः ।
तथा ह्यसौ मुनिरिह निर्विशेषवान्स निर्गुणं प्रविशति ब्रह्म चाव्ययम् ॥३१॥
31. divākaro guṇamupalabhya nirguṇo; yathā bhavedvyapagataraśmimaṇḍalaḥ ,
tathā hyasau muniriha nirviśeṣavā;nsa nirguṇaṁ praviśati brahma cāvyayam.
31. divākaraḥ guṇam upalabhya nirguṇaḥ

saḥ nirguṇam praviśati brahma ca avyayam
31. yathā divākaraḥ guṇam upalabhya
vyapagata-raśmi-maṇḍalaḥ nirguṇaḥ bhavet
tathā hi asau muniḥ iha nirviśeṣavān

31. Just as the sun (divākara), having acquired a quality (guṇa), becomes attributeless (nirguṇa) as if its disc of rays has departed; similarly, that sage (muni) here, possessing no distinctions (nirviśeṣavān), enters the attributeless (nirguṇa) and immutable (avyaya) Brahman (brahman).
