महाशनः महापाप्मा विद्धि एनं इह वैरिणम् ॥ ३.३७ ॥

Sri Krishna said: It is lust, it is anger, sprung out of the quality of Rajas; he is unquenchable, he is the great sinner; know him to be the enemy
Is it possible to extinguish lust by giving all that is urged by it? The Lord in answer describes its character to show the impossibility of such a course. The more the gratification is offered, the more it craves, and satisfaction is impossible. The lust is the prolific source of all sinful dispositions and activities, coming in the way of achieving the high purpose of human life, here and hereafter.
