Every day, thousands of occasions
for sorrow, and hundreds of circumstances
producing fear take possession of a fool,
but not a wise man.
 
'सुख मेकान्ततो नास्ति शकस्यापि त्रिविष्टपे ॥
"There is no absolute and invariable
happiness even for Indra in his heaven.
 
'क्षयान्ता निचयास्सर्वे पतनान्तास्समुच्छ्रयाः।
संयोगा विप्रयोगान्ता मरणान्तं च जीवितम् ॥
 
" All accumulations end in loss; all rises
end in fall; all unions end in separation ;
and life ends in death.
 
'' अर्थानामार्जने दुःखमार्जितानां तु रक्षणे
नाशे दुखं व्यये दुःखं घिगर्थे दुःखभाजनम् ॥
 
"There is trouble in earning riches;
trouble in guarding the riches earned ;
trouble if they are lost, trouble if they
are spent; fie on wealth, the store-house
of miseries.
