Bhagavad Gita 3.39
आवृतं ज्ञानमेतेन ज्ञानिनो नित्यवैरिणा।कामरूपेण कौन्तेय दुष्पूरेणानलेन च॥
āvṛtaṃ jñānametena jñānino nityavairiṇā |kāmarūpeṇa kaunteya duṣpūreṇānalena ca ||
O Arjuna, wisdom is enveloped by this constant enemy of the wise, in the form of desire, which is insatiable like fire.
It is the wise man's constant enemy; it tarnishes the face of wisdom, being as insatiable as a flame of fire.
Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
