आसुरीं योनिमापन्ना मूढा जन्मनि जन्मनि |

मामप्राप्यैव कौन्तेय ततो यान्त्यधमां गतिम् || 20||

āsurīṁ yonim āpannā mūḍhā janmani janmani
mām aprāpyaiva kaunteya tato yānty adhamāṁ gatim

भावार्थ:

हे अर्जुन! वे मूढ़ मुझको न प्राप्त होकर ही जन्म-जन्म में आसुरी योनि को प्राप्त होते हैं, फिर उससे भी अति नीच गति को ही प्राप्त होते हैं अर्थात्‌ घोर नरकों में पड़ते हैं॥20॥

Translation

Failing to reach me, O Arjun, they gradually sink to the most abominable type of existence.
