Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 9 verse 5

 Chapter 9 verse 5 

And yet, the living beings do not abide in Me. Behold the mystery of My divine energy! Although I am the Creator and Sustainer of all living beings, I am not influenced by them or by material nature.” 

How is that the Lord is the owner and creator of both the spiritual energy and material energy but does not get engaged in the material energy of maya. He is like lotus leaf in water- deeply entrenched but detached. The moral and physical degradation of the Universe which is nature of the creation does not affect the creator. Lord maintains an arm’s length relationship with the Universe. As a testament to this relationship, He doesn’t interfere in His own laws such as the law of karma and cause and effect. Yet, we engage him in a trading relationship every moment, always asking for something in return for showing devotion towards Him.
