Can you give a reference for this?

They wouldn't assert either to be the greater and would hold that both are
ultimately non-different, is it not?

>The Purusha sUktham says: anthar bhahithschathassarvam vyApya >nArAyaNas

This is from the nArAyaNa sUktam (also part of the mahAnArAyaNa upanishad),
not the purusha sUktam, I think.
