Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 12 - Chapter 1 - Verse 41


Sanskrit:

मूर्ती इमे भगवतो भगवंस्त्रिलोक्या:क्षेमाय तापविरमाय च मृत्युजित्यै ।नाना बिभर्ष्यवितुमन्यतनूर्यथेदंसृष्ट्वा पुनर्ग्रससि सर्वमिवोर्णनाभि: ॥ ४१ ॥

ITRANS:

mūrtī ime bhagavato bhagavaṁs tri-lokyāḥkṣemāya tāpa-viramāya ca mṛtyu-jityainānā bibharṣy avitum anya-tanūr yathedaṁsṛṣṭvā punar grasasi sarvam ivorṇanābhiḥ

Translation:

O Supreme Personality of Godhead, these two personal forms of Yours have appeared to bestow the ultimate benefit for the three worlds — the cessation of material misery and the conquest of death. My Lord, although You create this universe and then assume many transcendental forms to protect it, You also swallow it up, just like a spider who spins and later withdraws its web.
