Arjuna Visada Yoga

अर्जुनविषादयोग

उत्सन्नकुलधर्माणां मनुष्याणां जनार्दन | नरके नियतं वासो भवतीत्यनुशुश्रुम (or नरकेऽनियतं) ||१-४४||

utsannakuladharmāṇāṃ manuṣyāṇāṃ janārdana . narake niyataṃ vāso bhavatītyanuśuśruma ||1-44||

In plain words

You should recognize the heavy spiritual consequences of abandoning your moral responsibilities. When you discard your family dharma, the righteous duty that guides your life, you lose your inner compass. Traditional teachings warn that living without these sacred boundaries leads to a state of inner hell, filled with confusion, regret, and deep spiritual suffering.

Translation

1.44 For those whose clan-laws are destroyed, dwelling in hell is ordained, O Krsna; thus have we heard.
