Explicação

This verse and the next describe a chain of causes that leads step by step to ruin. When a person dwells on objects in thought, attachment (saṅga) to them arises. From attachment comes desire (kāma), and when desire is blocked, anger (krodha) follows. The verse locates the beginning of the problem not in action but in repeated thinking. What we dwell on shapes what we want, and frustrated wanting turns to anger. This analysis remains strikingly relevant as a description of the mind.
