* The living entity tries to achieve happiness and rid himself of the causes of distress, but because the various bodies of the living entities are under the full control of material nature, all his plans in different bodies, one after another, are ultimately baffled (13.29).<ref name=":0" />

* Even if a man's efforts are successful, what pleasure can be derived from the hard-earned wealth and desired objects obtained with great difficulty to a mortal obsessed with the fear of death and the three types of miseries ie. adhyatmika, adhidaivika and adhibhautika (13.30).<ref name=":1" /><ref name=":0" />

* I perceive the agonies and tensions of wealthy covetous persons who have no control over themselves, and who have lost their sleep, out of fear, as they are suspicious of everybody on all sides (13.31).
* I observe that those who are anxious about their life and wealth, entertain fear from rajas, robbers, enemies, their kinsmen, birds, beasts, time and themselves, at every moment (13.32).
* Therefore, a wise man should give up longings for life and property which are the source of sorrow, infatuation, fear, anger, attachment, despondency, over-exertions and such other troubles (13.33).<ref name=":1" />
=== मधुकरमहासर्पदृष्टान्तः ॥ Allegory of the Bee and Python ===
The brahmana explains to Maharaja Prahlada that in this world, the bee and the big python are our best teachers, following whose example we learn renunciation and contentment. He says,
* I have learnt renunciation of all worldly objects from the bee, the gatherer of honey. For, any other person may kill the master and usurp the hard-earned money like honey is taken after killing the bees (13.35).
* Being free from all desires with contented mind, I accept what is brought to me by providence. If not, I lie inactive like a serpent for many days, depending on my power. (13.36).
* Sometimes I eat scant food; sometimes I enjoy a heavy meal irrespective of the sweetness or otherwise of the food. Sometimes I partake of highly rich and dainty dishes and sometimes worthless food (13.37).
* At some places I eat food, that is offered to me with respect and sometimes with irreverence. Sometimes I do justice to food after eating; sometimes I eat food by day or by night as it is offered to me by chance (13.38).<ref name=":1" />
