About this episode
यदा वणिजः माधवस्य सुदिनानि समाप्तानि दुर्दिनानि सन्निहितानि तदा सः आर्तस्वरेण देवं प्रार्थितवान् । तदा देवः ब्राह्मणवेषं धृत्वा 'स्वस्य दुःखमेव अधिकम् इति कदापि अस्माभिः चिन्तनं न करणीयम् । अन्येषाम् इतोऽप्यधिकानि दुःखानि भवन्ति एव' इति केनचित् निर्दर्शनेन बोधितवान् । ततः सः धैर्येण एव कष्टानि सोढवान् । अन्ते च सुखं प्राप्तवान् ।

When the merchant Madhava's good days ended and difficult times approached, he prayed to God in distress. Then, God, disguised as a Brahmin, advised him, "One should never think that their suffering is the greatest. There are always others facing even greater hardships". With this realization, Madhava endured his troubles with patience. In the end, he attained happiness.
