Yoga Definition and Sāṃkhya Enumeration
ततः क्रोधाभिशभूतानां वृत्तं लज्जासमन्वितम् । ह्वीक्षेवाप्पनशद् राज॑स्ततो मोहो व्यजायत
tataḥ krodhābhibhūtānāṃ vṛttaṃ lajjāsamanvitam | hrīḥ kṣeva apanaśad rājan tato moho vyajāyata, rājan |
于是，大王啊，当人们为忿怒所压倒时，那由羞惭与端谨所维系的善行便崩塌了；他们的自制也随之坠落。其后，大王啊，迷妄在他们心中生起。
पराशर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Anger is presented as a root vice: once it dominates a person, it erodes lajjā (moral shame) and hrī (restraint), and this loss of inner checks leads directly to moha (delusion), i.e., impaired discernment and ethical confusion.
Parāśara explains to the king a causal sequence in moral psychology: anger overwhelms people, their shame-based good conduct disappears, their inhibitions fall away, and then delusion arises—setting the stage for further wrongdoing.
