The text explains that it is a 'divine plan' that no one experiences unmixed happiness and that everyone has some nagging worry. Ratanji, who was outwardly 'swimming in an ocean of joy' with his immense wealth, was internally tormented by the 'crocodile of a difficult inner worry' over not having a son.
