In a contrivance at a well, on a rotating wheel with many pitchers are attached to it. As the wheel goes down, the jars are filled with water. When they come up along with the wheel, they are emptied. Again they go below and come up. Thus the wheel goes on filling and emptying the jars. The fate or providence also rotates like a wheel, changing the fortunes of human beings. This is what a verse in Mṛcchakaṭika tells us. It empties or fills up some
it elevates some and (degrades some) makes some fall down and makes some anxious, ( thus ) making ( all) realize this state of things in the world--conveying the sense of the maxim "the well machine and the buckets".
