13.
The person without ego is always loving among relatives and non-relatives in the world. He obtains knowledge, honour and wealth and accomplishes his own task.
14.
All the (worldly) pleasures which are unsteady like the lightening have been apprehended as vanished. All the places are impermanent like the bubble of water.
15.
Property, order, foodstuff and health are a coincidence Property ord like the group of birds at night on any one tree. They are transient like the ring of light around the sun or the moon.
16.
In the world even the sensuous possession of persons is transient like the evenings and youth of men is unsteady like midday.
17.
The moon diminishes and again increases, and passed away season comes again. But youth does not return like a small fish gone into the flow of water of a river.
18.
In the world houses, beds, seats and utensils also are transient like the collection of ice-pieces. Even honour and fame are transient like the redness of the sky in the evening.
