Analysis of Earthly affair
Selling in the Earthly affair
No one will come with you.
As you came on that day
Likewise, you will be gone.
As much as you do, illusion here
With children, property, wife.
So do not weep, no result
Only Karma will be with you.
If you have a fall with the delusion
There is no gain in the soul.
