पृथ्व्याद्यसद्विचारैर्वा व्यर्थं यास्यति जीवितम् ।
किंचिच्च न ज्ञास्यति भोराकाशक्षालनोद्यतः ॥ ९ ॥

pṛthvyādyasadvicārairvā vyarthaṃ yāsyati jīvitam |
kiṃcicca na jñāsyati bhorākāśakṣālanodyataḥ || 9 ||

Knowing the unreality of the earth and other things, men are yet prone to pass their lives in those vanities and in their ignorance of truth, they resemble the miners, who instead of digging the earth in search of gold, expect it to fall upon them from heaven.
