सर्वभूतानि कौन्तेय प्रकृतिं यान्ति मामिकाम् ॥
कल्पक्षये पुनस् तानि कल्पादौ विसृजाम्य् अहम् ॥

sarvabhūtāni kaunteya prakṛtiṃ yānti māmikām ||
kalpakṣaye punas tāni kalpādau visṛjāmy aham ||
prakṛtiṃ svām avaṣṭabhya visṛjāmi punaḥ punaḥ ||

'O son of Kunti, at the end of the kalpa all beings enter My prakriti, and at the beginning of the kalpa I send them forth again. Resting upon My own prakriti, I bring forth again and again this whole multitude of beings, helpless under the sway of nature. But these actions do not bind Me, O Dhananjaya: I remain as if indifferent, unattached to these deeds. Under My supervision prakriti brings forth the moving and the unmoving; for this reason, O son of Kunti, the world revolves.'

Creation does not occur independently of Krishna, nor does it bind Him with karma. Prakriti acts under His oversight, and living beings, so long as they remain under the sway of nature, enter again and again into the stream of manifestation and dissolution.
