CHAPTER 2 Curiosity About Action ध्यायतो विषयान्पुंस: संगस्तेषूपजायते। संगात्संजायते काम: कामात्क्रोधोऽभिजायते॥62॥ [ “They whose thoughts are of sensual objects are attached to them, attachment gives rise to desires, and anger is born when these desires are obstructed.’’ ] The feeling of attachment persists in men who have yet got over their concern with the objects of sense. Desire is born from attachment. And there is anger when there is an obstacle in the way of satisfaction of desire. And what does the feeling of anger give rise to ? क्रोधाद्भवति सम्मोह: सम्मोहात्स्मृतिविभ्रम:। स्मृतिभ्रंशाद् बुद्धिनाशो बुद्धिनाशात्प्रणश्यति॥63॥ [ “Delusion is born from anger, by which memory is confused; confusion of memory undermines the faculty of discrimination and, when discrimination is lost, the seeker deviates from the means of absolution.’’]
