कषायदोषा नरकायुरर्जका भवद्वयो द्वेगकराः सुखच्छिदः । कदा त्यजेयुर्मम सङ्गमात्मनो fa H197770441971fa:

Meaning :- Anger, egoism, deceit, and avarice are the four passions which are the vices of the Soul. Inauspicious Karmas are incurred by the Soul with as much intensity with which they are entertained or harboured. If these passions are Anantanubandhi, the being is chained down to hells. If they are Apratyakhyani, he goes to the animal kingdom. They not only give pain in the next world only but they keep in this world also the mind full of anguish. In the presence of the means of happiness, a being is made bereft of it by them. Therefore, every candidate for emancipation should always think "when shall I be permanently freed from the firm grip of these pariahs of passions ? The moment when I shall get dissociated from these, I shall, indeed be really happy." (64)
