Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 69
चिन्तयावश्च मनसि प्रतीकारं मुनेरुभौ । यो हि मानुष्यमासाद्य जलबुद्बुदभंगुरम्
cintayāvaśca manasi pratīkāraṃ munerubhau | yo hi mānuṣyamāsādya jalabudbudabhaṃguram
ہم دونوں فکر کے دباؤ میں اپنے دل میں مُنی کے بتائے ہوئے علاج پر غور کرنے لگے۔ کیونکہ انسانی زندگی، مل بھی جائے تو، پانی کے بلبلے کی طرح ناپائیدار اور ٹوٹنے والی ہے۔
Narrator (deduced, continuing the dialogue episode)
