Mundaka Upanishad 3.2

दिव्यो ह्यमूर्तः पुरुषः सबाह्याभ्यन्तरो ह्यजः। अप्राणो ह्यमनाः शुभ्रो ह्यक्षरात्परतः परः॥

divyo hyamūrtaḥ puruṣaḥ sabāhyābhyantaro hyajaḥ | aprāṇo hyamanāḥ śubhro hyakṣarātparataḥ paraḥ ||

"The divine Purusha is formless. He is both within and without, unborn, without breath, without mind, pure, higher than the highest Imperishable."

What This Means:

The supreme Person has no form, is everywhere (inside and outside), was never born, doesn't breathe or think, is pure, and transcends even the Imperishable.

Going Deeper:

This describes the para-Brahman - beyond even akshara (the imperishable). The absolute transcends all categories.

How To Apply This:

What you seek is beyond all description. Don't limit it to any concept.
