Question

Read the following passage and answer the questions :
The Buddha said, “The life of mortals in this world is troubled and
brief and combined with pain. For there is not any means by which those
that have been born can avoid dying; after reaching old age there is death;
of such a nature are living beings. As ripe fruits are early in danger of
falling, so mortals when born are always in danger of death. As all earthen
vessels made by the potter end in being broken, so is the life of mortals.
Both young and adult, both those who are fools and those who are wise,
all fall into the power of death; all are subject to death.
