Verse 7.201.23

अन्यतामेतु सर्गोऽयं वातु वा प्रलयानिलः ।
सौम्यो भवतु वा देशः स्वस्थोऽहं स्वात्मनि स्थितः ॥ २३ ॥

anyatāmetu sargo'yaṃ vātu vā pralayānilaḥ |
saumyo bhavatu vā deśaḥ svastho'haṃ svātmani sthitaḥ || 23 ||

Let this creation be otherwise or go to perdition, let the winds of the last destruction blow with their fury also; or let the land smile in its plenty and beauty, yet I sit unmoved by them, and remain in the divine self or spirit.
