What it means
Nothing lasts, not health, money or company. This is not meant to depress you but to wake you up: cherish people now, and do not cling so tightly to what must change.हिंदी में अर्थ
शरीर पर हमेशा ख़तरा है, धन ही विपत्तियों का घर है, हर मिलन के बाद बिछड़ना है, और जो कुछ पैदा हुआ वह नष्ट होगा।
कुछ भी स्थायी नहीं — न सेहत, न पैसा, न साथ। यह डराने के लिए नहीं, जगाने के लिए है: अपनों को अभी संजोओ।
Spoken by Hiranyaka.
