Emperor Nala, who reigned over a vast kingdom, could not take with him anything when he passed away. Did King Mandhata, who adorned the Krita Yuga, carry any wealth with him when he left the earth? Even Lord Rama, who built a bridge across the Ocean, is not to be seen on the earth today. Many kings have ruled over the earth, but none of them could carry even a fistful of dust with him. Oh noble one! do you think you can carry the kingdom and its riches on your head when you leave the world? (Telugu poem) (SSS Vol. 41, p. 15)
