Sūta said: The destruction is subject to the behest of lord Siva. When the creation is annihilated and the Pradhāna is stationed in. itself, both Pradhāna and Puruṣa come to a standstill or remain, inactive. O brahmins, it is only when the three guṇas are not in equilibrium that creation takes place. When they are in equilibrium the creation is dissolved. The great lord is the cause of both. The creation is effected by him sportively in this manner.
