Sanskrit Text

कृष्णस्य वर्णस्य गतिर्निकृष्टा; मज्जते नरके पच्यमानः स्थानं तथा दुर्गतिभिस्तु तस्य; प्रजाविसर्गान्सुबहून्वदन्ति

English Translation

The end that is acquired by an individual soul of dark colour is very low, for he becomes addicted to acts leading to hell and then has to rot in hell. The learned say that on account of his wickedness, the continuance of an individual is measured by many thousands of Kalpas.
