The highest truth, which even the mind cannot grasp

नैमिषोपाख्यानं नाम तृतीयोऽध्यायः
 
Naimisharanya episode Chapter 3
 
ब्रह्मोवाच |
 
Brahma said (to the sages)
 
यतो वाचो निवर्तन्ते अप्राप्य मनसा सह |
आनन्दं यस्य वै विद्वान्न बिभेति कुतश्चन || 1 ||
 
That without grasping which speech turns back along with the mind, whose joy,
a knowledgeable person does not fear for any reason.

The first half of this shloka also appears in Taittiriya Upanishad, Chapter 2, shloka 9.
