From anger comes delusion; from delusion, confusion of memory; from confusion of memory, loss of reason; and from loss of reason, one is utterly lost.
- Smriti: Memory or recollection.
- Bhramsa: Destruction or confusion.

From anger arises delusion, which leads to confusion of memory and loss of reason. This results in the total destruction of one’s wisdom.
