How life is filled with misery

“Fie upon this wretched life which affords one only misery. To live is to experience nothing but disease and pain. Pursuing in turn religion, wealth and pleasure, one endeavors much but receives little happiness. While everything leads to salvation, that is an impossible goal to achieve.”

Ekachakra brahmin at whose house the Pandavas were residing, Mahabharata translated by Krishna Dharma Das
