Bhagavad Gita 7.20
कामैस्तैस्तैर्हृतज्ञानाः प्रपद्यन्तेऽन्यदेवताः।तं तं नियममास्थाय प्रकृत्या नियताः स्वया॥
kāmaistaistairhṛtajñānāḥ prapadyante'nyadevatāḥ |taṃ taṃ niyamamāsthāya prakṛtyā niyatāḥ svayā ||
Those whose wisdom has been taken away by this or that desire, go to other gods, following this or that rite, led by their own nature.
They in whom wisdom is obscured by one desire or another, worship the lesser powers, practicing many rites that vary according to their temperaments.
Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
