Verse 654

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ ६५४ ॥

In plain words

It is the same with suffering: it reaches even the beings who hold the seat of Brahmā and the ranks below him. So the one who knows does not want the happiness that comes from objects.

Close to the Sanskrit

Just so is suffering the lot of born beings who partake of the station of Brahmā and the rest; therefore object-derived happiness is not to be desired by one who knows.
