The city floats in the current of the forest,
The city floats in the current of the forest,
the world floats in the current of ignorance.
When I came, I came empty-handed,
when I will go, I will also go empty-handed.
In this time between coming and going,
I will laugh, cry, and be arrogant by calling everything "mine, mine," "my wife, my daughter, my children, my place, my gold and silver, my house," and I will cause enmity, kill, and fight. I will act in hundreds of other ways. At the end of the day, I will leave everything behind. Just as borrowed things have to be returned when the time comes, so nothing in this world is yours. Everything is borrowed. When the time comes, you have to leave everything behind.
Either you leave first, or they will leave you first. This is the law of the nature of the world.
But when I leave, I will leave just as I came. I will only have two bundles of sins and virtues on my shoulders.
Nothing of this "mine and mine" will go with fashion. Finally, your own body will not be destroyed. It will be reduced to ashes in someone's fire, eaten by insects, eaten by the earth.
Be at peace with the illusion of this fleeting world, Bapu, let others live in peace too.
