Translation
One may says that one may understand the ultimate welfare of life by studing many scriptures for long time.
So Vyāsadeba says savhya means O saintly person in this age of kali peoples are alpāyuṣaḥ means they have short life expectency.  And more than that peoples are lazy in this age.
And also they are ill advised, unlucky and sufferd from diseaes.
