Bhishma said, When one's wealth is lost, or one's wife or son or father is dead, he certainly says to oneself,-Alas, it is a great sorrow,-But then one should, by the help of meditation, try to kill that grief.
भीष्म उवाच नष्ट धने वा दारे वा पुत्रे पितरि वा मृते। अहो दुःखमिति ध्यायशोकस्यापचितिं चरेत्॥
