यानि दुःखानि दीर्घाणि विषमाणि महान्ति च ।
अहंकारात्प्रसूतानि तान्यगात्खदिरा इव ॥ ६ ॥

yāni duḥkhāni dīrghāṇi viṣamāṇi mahānti ca |
ahaṃkārātprasūtāni tānyagātkhadirā iva || 6 ||

All our great and intolerable miseries, growing as rank as the thorny plants of the catechu, are but results of our egoism.
