Verse 5.38.24

सर्गक्षयोदयावेतौ सुसमौ मम यद्यपि ।
तथापीदं यथासंस्थं भवत्वन्येन किं मम ॥ २४ ॥

sargakṣayodayāvetau susamau mama yadyapi |
tathāpīdaṃ yathāsaṃsthaṃ bhavatvanyena kiṃ mama || 24 ||

Though the creation and destruction of the world, be indifferent to me; yet its continuation in the primordial order, is of much concern to others, if not to my insusceptible self.
