उत्सन्नकुलधर्माणां मनुष्याणां जनार्दन। नरकेऽनियतं वासो भवतीत्यनुशुश्रुम॥
utsanna-kuladharmanam manushyanam janardana narake'niyatam vaso bhavati ity anushushruma
Translation
O Janardana, I have heard from the learned that those whose family traditions are destroyed dwell indefinitely in hell.
Commentary
Arjuna cites scriptural authority to support his argument, showing his learning. However, he is selectively interpreting scripture to justify inaction, which is a common trap of intellectual knowledge without wisdom.
