महाभारतः mahābhārataḥ - book-12, chapter-105, verse-44

संचये च विनाशान्ते मरणान्ते च जीविते ।
संयोगे विप्रयोगान्ते को नु विप्रणयेन्मनः ॥४४॥

44. saṁcaye ca vināśānte maraṇānte ca jīvite ,
saṁyoge viprayogānte ko nu vipraṇayenmanaḥ.

44. saṃcaye ca vināśānte maraṇānte ca jīvite
saṃyoge viprayogānte kaḥ nu vipraṇayet manaḥ

44. saṃcaye vināśānte ca,
jīvite maraṇānte ca,
saṃyoge viprayogānte (ca) (sati) kaḥ nu manaḥ vipraṇayet

44. Since accumulation ultimately ends in destruction, life in death, and union in separation—who, indeed, would attach their mind to these?
