योगवासिष्ठः yogavāsiṣṭhaḥ - book-7, chapter-172, verse-18

एवं हि खल्विदं ब्रह्म परमेवाचलं यतः ।
अनादिमध्यपर्यन्तं कुतः स्मृत्यादयस्ततः ॥ १८ ॥

evaṃ hi khalvidaṃ brahma paramevācalaṃ yataḥ ,
anādimadhyaparyantaṃ kutaḥ smṛtyādayastataḥ 18

18. evam hi khalu idam brahma param eva acalam yataḥ
anādimadhyaparyantam kutaḥ smṛtyādayaḥ tataḥ

18. evam hi khalu idam brahma param eva acalam yataḥ
anādimadhyaparyantam tataḥ kutaḥ smṛtyādayaḥ

18. Thus, indeed, this (idam) Brahman (brahma) is verily (eva) supreme (param) and unmoving (acalam). Because it is without beginning, middle, or end (anādimadhyaparyantam), from where then can memory (smṛti) and similar concepts (ādayaḥ) arise from that (Brahman)?
