भुशुण्ड उवाच ।
जगत्प्रसररूपस्य न देश उपयुज्यते ।
न कालो धारणे स्तम्भ आलोकस्याम्बरे यथा ॥ १ ॥

bhuśuṇḍa uvāca |
jagatprasararūpasya na deśa upayujyate |
na kālo dhāraṇe stambha ālokasyāmbare yathā || 1 ||

Bhusunda Said:—The universe which contains the totality of existence, and appears as a wide extended sphere; is not in need of any pre-existent place or time as recipients of its substance just as the etherial light (of the twilight), requires no prop or pillar in the heavens for its support.
