यः शास्त्रविधिमुत्सृज्य वर्तते कामकारतः ।
न स सिद्धिमवाप्नोति न सुखं न परां गतिम् ॥
न स सिद्धिमवाप्नोति न सुखं न परां गतिम् ॥
हिन्दी अनुवाद
जो मनुष्य शास्त्रविधिको छोड़कर अपनी इच्छासे मनमाना आचरण करता है, वह न सिद्धिअन्तःकरणकी शुद्धि को, न सुखको और न परमगतिको ही प्राप्त होता है ॥
English
Whoever sets aside scripture and acts on desire alone does not attain perfection, happiness, or the highest state.
श्लोक का अर्थ
Acting only on impulse, while ignoring wise guidance, blocks real fulfilment, lasting happiness, and the highest good.
संदर्भ और टिप्पणी
On Kurukshetra, after warning Arjuna about the three inner gates of ruin, Krishna sharpens the point: a person who throws aside right guidance and follows desire alone will not reach inner fulfilment, happiness, or the highest aim. The battlefield crisis becomes a lesson in disciplined choice.

सार
Freedom without guidance is not freedom at all; it can quietly close every real door.
