Trividham narakasyedam dwaaram naashanamaatmanah;
Kaamah krodhastathaa lobhas tasmaadetat trayam tyajet.

21. Triple is the gate of this hell, destructive of the self—lust, anger, and greed,—therefore,
one should abandon these three.

Etairvimuktah kaunteya tamodwaaraistribhirnarah;
Aacharatyaatmanah shreyas tato yaati paraam gatim.

22. A man who is liberated from these three gates to darkness, O Arjuna, practises what is
good for him and thus goes to the Supreme goal!
