Bhagavad Gita 1.42

Arjuna Vishada Yoga

सङ्करो नरकायैव कुलघ्नानां कुलस्य च | पतन्ति पितरो ह्येषां लुप्तपिण्डोदकक्रियाः ||

saṅkaro narakāyaiva kula-ghnānāṁ kulasya ca patanti pitaro hy eṣāṁ lupta-piṇḍodaka-kriyāḥ

English

An increase of unwanted population certainly causes hellish life both for the family and for those who destroy the family tradition. The ancestors of such corrupt families fall down, because the performances for offering them food and water are entirely stopped.

हिन्दी

वर्णसंकर कुल का और कुलघातियों का नरक में ही नाश करने वाला होता है, क्योंकि इनके पितर लुप्त पिण्ड और जल की क्रिया से गिर जाते हैं।
