Adhyaya 50 — Mind-Born Progeny, Svayambhuva Manu’s Lineage, and Brahmā’s Ordinance to Duḥsaha (Alakṣmī’s Retinue)
वेदनात्मसुतञ्चापि दुःखं जज्ञेऽथ रौरवात् ।
मृत्योर्व्याधि-जराशोक-तृष्णा-क्रोधाश्च जज्ञिरे ॥
vedanātmasutaṃ cāpi duḥkhaṃ jajñe 'tha rauravāt | mṛtyor vyādhi-jarā-śoka-tṛṣṇā-krodhāś ca jajñire ||
ヴェーダナー(Vedanā)の自らの子孫の系より、ラウラヴァ(Raurava)を経て苦(Duḥkha)が生じた。また死(Mṛtyu)からは、病(Vyādhi)、老(Jarā)、憂い(Śoka)、渇愛(Tṛṣṇā)、そして怒り(Krodha)が生まれた。

The verse groups the classic afflictions of embodied existence—disease, aging, grief, craving, anger—as ‘children of death,’ i.e., inseparable companions of mortality. It encourages dharmic restraint and insight to reduce the secondary sufferings (tṛṣṇā, krodha) that amplify inevitable decay.
Sarga/Pratisarga: cataloging the emergence of existential afflictions as part of the created order, presented through lineage.
Vyādhi and jarā represent bodily impermanence; śoka, tṛṣṇā, krodha represent mental reactions. The teaching implies liberation is chiefly from the reactive triad (grief–craving–anger), even if birth-death processes continue.
