Chapter 1 · Arjuna's Despair · Arjuna said
Bhagavad Gita 1.42 — Ancestors also suffer
सङ्करो नरकायैव कुलघ्नानां कुलस्य च। पतन्ति पितरो ह्येषां लुप्तपिण्डोदकक्रियाः ॥
saṅkaro narakāyaiva kulaghnānāṃ kulasya ca | patanti pitaro hyeṣāṃ luptapiṇḍodakakriyāḥ ||
Meaning
Such confusion drags both the family and its destroyers down to suffering, and their ancestors fall too, deprived of the offerings of food and water.
