Gyana Karma Sannyasa Yogah - The ignorant, faithless, and doubting person perishes; neither this world, nor the next, nor happiness exists for the doubting soul.
अज्ञश्चाश्रद्दधानश्च संशयात्मा विनश्यति |
नायं लोकोऽस्ति न परो न सुखं संशयात्मन: ||40||

The ignorant, faithless, and doubting person perishes; neither this world, nor the next, nor happiness exists for the doubting soul.

  • Samshay-atma: A doubting soul.
  • Vinashyati: Perishes or is destroyed.

The doubting soul, Krishna warns, faces spiritual ruin. By highlighting the perils of doubt, he encourages Arjuna to cultivate conviction, reminding him that confidence in the path is crucial for success in life and spirituality, as doubt blocks one from achieving true fulfillment and peace.
