Skanda–Mātṛgaṇa-janma: Kumārakāḥ, Kanyāgaṇāḥ, and the Vīrāṣṭaka (स्कन्द-मातृगण-सम्भवः)
ब्राह्मण उवाच एवमेतानि पुरुषा दुःखानि च सुखानि च । आप्ुवन्ति महाबुद्धे नोत्कण्ठां कर्तुमहसि,ब्राह्मण बोला--महामते! मनुष्य इसी प्रकार दुःख और सुख पाते रहते हैं। इसके लिये आपको चिन्ता नहीं करनी चाहिये
brāhmaṇa uvāca: evam etāni puruṣā duḥkhāni ca sukhāni ca āpnuvanti mahābuddhe notkaṇṭhāṃ kartum arhasi.
Sang brāhmaṇa berkata: “Wahai yang berakal agung, manusia memang mengalami duka dan suka dengan cara demikian. Karena itu, janganlah engkau larut dalam kegelisahan atau kerinduan yang mencemaskan.”

Educational Q&A

A Brāhmaṇa addresses a person described as “great-minded,” offering counsel and consolation: since people inevitably encounter both happiness and suffering, the listener should not fall into distress.
