Gems from the Bhagavad Gita

From anger comes delusion

क्रोधाद्भवति सम्मोह: सम्मोहात्स्मृतिविभ्रम:
स्मृतिभ्रंशाद् बुद्धिनाशो बुद्धिनाशात्प्रणश्यति

Krodhaad-bhavati sammohah
sammohaat-smriti-vibhramah.
Smriti-bhranshaad buddhinaasho
buddhi-naashaat-praṇashyati.

Bhagavad Gita 2.63

From anger comes delusion; from delusion comes confused memory; from confused memory comes the ruin of reason; from ruin of reason, a person perishes.

क्रोधात् from anger भवति comes सम्मोहः clouding of judgment ्मृति memory विभ्रमः bewilderment, confusion ्मृति-भ्रन्शात् confused memory; destruction of logic बुद्धि-निशात् destruction of intellect प्रणश्यति be lost, be ruined.
