5.18.38

karoti viśva-sthiti-saṃyamodayaṃ yasyepsitaṃ nepsitam īkṣitur guṇaiḥ /
māyā yathāyo bhramate tad-āśrayaṃ grāvṇo namas te guṇa-karma-sākṣiṇe //

38. "By means of the gunas Maya, like a piece of iron moving towards the load-stone in its presence, brings about the subsistence, destruction and creation for the sake of Jiva, but not for the Looker-on (Paramatman who is a mere witness); I bow to you that art thus only the witness of the gunas.
