भुशुण्ड उवाच ।
आसीत्किंचित्पुरा कल्पे जगद्यच्चिरमास्थितम् ।
संनिवेशेन चैतद्वदद्यापि च न दूरगम् ॥ १ ॥

bhuśuṇḍa uvāca |
āsītkiṃcitpurā kalpe jagadyacciramāsthitam |
saṃniveśena caitadvadadyāpi ca na dūragam || 1 ||

Bhusunda continued. This world has existed by the prior and bygone kalpa, in the very same state as it does at present, and there is no variation in the formation or location of any thing in any wise.
