Bhagavad-Gītā 16.4 & 7-10
"Pride, arrogance, conceit, anger, harshness and ignorance – these qualities belong to those of demoniac nature, O son of Pṛthā." "Those who are demoniac do not know what is to be done and what is not to be done. Neither cleanliness nor proper behavior nor truth is found in them." "They say that this world is unreal, with no foundation, no God in control. They say it is produced of sex desire and has no cause other than lust." "Following such conclusions, the demoniac, who are lost to themselves and who have no intelligence, engage in unbeneficial, horrible works meant to destroy the world." "Taking shelter of insatiable lust and absorbed in the conceit of pride and false prestige, the demoniac, thus illusioned, are always sworn to unclean work, attracted by the impermanent." https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/4/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/7/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/8/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/9/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/10/
Bhagavad-Gītā 16.21-24
"There are three gates leading to this hell – lust, anger and greed. Every sane man should give these up, for they lead to the degradation of the soul." "The man who has escaped these three gates of hell, O son of Kuntī, performs acts conducive to self-realization and thus gradually attains the supreme destination." "He who discards scriptural injunctions and acts according to his own whims attains neither perfection, nor happiness, nor the supreme destination." "One should therefore understand what is duty and what is not duty by the regulations of the scriptures. Knowing such rules and regulations, one should act so that he may gradually be elevated." https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/21/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/22/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/23/ & https://vedy.online/en/bg/16/24/
