1. The Brahmana said:—Placed by Prakriti in the interminable path of Pravritti, with its attention turned to activities, various according to the impulse of Rajas, Tamas, and Satva, this company of merchants (Jivas) devoted to their purpose (of wealth or pleasure) wanders through the forest of samsara, but does not find happiness.
