Na mam dushkritino mudhah prapadyante naradhamah, mayayapahrta-jnana asura bhavam ashritah
Evildoers who are foolish, who are the lowest among men, whose knowledge is taken away by maya, and who have taken to the demonic nature — they do not surrender unto Me. Krishna identifies four categories of people who fail to seek God: the wicked, the ignorant, those whose wisdom is stolen by illusion, and those with a demonic disposition.
- •Negative qualities and maya prevent surrender to the Divine
- •Demonic tendencies turn souls away from liberation
- •Wisdom can be obscured by illusion and wrong associations
