Happiness and misery, prosperity and adversity, gain and loss, death and life, in their turn, visit all creatures. There the wise man, endued with equanimity soul would neither be puffed up with joy nor be depressed with sorrow.
सुखं च दुःखं च भवाभवौ च लाभालाभौ मरणं जीवितं च। पर्यायतः सर्वमवाप्नुवन्ति तस्माद्धीरो नैव हृष्येन शोचेत्॥
