Yoga Definition and Sāṃkhya Enumeration
ततो मोहपरीतास्ता नापश्यन्त यथा पुरा । परस्परावमर्देन वर्धयन्त्यो यथासुखम्
tato mohapārītāstā nāpaśyanta yathā purā | parasparāvamardena vardhayantyo yathāsukham ||
继而,迷妄笼罩之下,他们不复如昔以明辨之眼观照万事。为求一己之乐,他们开始彼此碾压、相互残害,以互相伤害作为谋取私利的途径。
पराशर उवाच
When delusion (moha) overtakes people, discernment collapses and self-interest replaces dharma; the pursuit of personal pleasure then expresses itself as mutual oppression, producing social and ethical ruin.
Parāśara describes a condition of moral confusion in which certain beings (spoken of in the feminine plural) lose their former clarity of judgment and, driven by desire for their own comfort, try to prosper by harming one another.
