eternally dissatsified and inadequate



ईर्ष्यी घृणी त्वसन्तुष्टः क्रोधनो नित्यशङ्कितः।
परभाग्योपजीवी च षडेते दुःखभागिनः॥
सुभाषितशतके १-९०
īrṣyī ghṛṇī tvasantuṣṭaḥ krodhano nityaśaṅkitaḥ|
parabhāgyopajīvī ca ṣaḍete duḥkhabhāginaḥ||
subhāṣitaśatake 1-90
The above sloka is attributed to Vidura neeti of Mahabharatahm too.
The following six categories of persons are always miserable..
1. Those who always harbour envy for others in their minds.
2 Those who tend to hate other people and other things as a
matter of habit of character.
3, Those who do not find happiness in anything
4.. Those who are given to uncontrollable anger
5.. Those who are obsessively doubtful or skeptical.
6.. Those who live and survive just consuming the wealth and
income of others..
It need not be the case that those who live a decent life would not face challenges.. Of course, that will happen.. But then that is life.. Life is beautiful if there are reasonable more happy things to think of..
But the categories listed about are sureshot insurance for misery.. unmitigated, undiluted misery..
