Srimad Bhagavatam — Shashtha Skandha, Shloka 29
Ajāmila Delivered: Viṣṇudūtas Establish the Supremacy of the Holy Name
सोऽहं व्यक्तं पतिष्यामि नरके भृशदारुणे । धर्मघ्ना: कामिनो यत्र विन्दन्ति यमयातना: ॥ २९ ॥
so ’haṁ vyaktaṁ patiṣyāmi narake bhṛśa-dāruṇe dharma-ghnāḥ kāmino yatra vindanti yama-yātanāḥ
ଏବେ ସ୍ପଷ୍ଟ—ମୋ ପରି ପାପୀ ନିଶ୍ଚୟ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ଭୟଙ୍କର ନରକକୁ ପଡ଼ିବ; ଯେଉଁଠାରେ ଧର୍ମଘାତକ ଓ କାମାସକ୍ତମାନେ ଯମର କଠୋର ଯାତନା ଭୋଗନ୍ତି।

This verse states that those who destroy dharma and live lustfully face Yama’s punishments in dreadful hellish conditions.
Ajāmila laments his sinful, lust-driven life and recognizes that such adharma leads to Yamarāja’s torments; this is part of his awakening and remorse in the Ajāmila narrative.
Use it as a reminder to restrain lust and harmful habits, restore dharmic conduct, and cultivate sincere repentance that turns one toward devotion and reform.
