Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 1, Verse 43

दोषैरेतैः कुलघ्नानां वर्णसङ्करकारकैः । उत्साद्यन्ते जातिधर्माः कुलधर्माश्च शाश्वताः ॥ ४३ ॥

doṣhair etaiḥ kula-ghnānāṁ varṇa-saṅkara-kārakaiḥ utsādyante jāti-dharmāḥ kula-dharmāśh cha śhāśhvatāḥ

Translation

By these wrongs of the family-destroyers, which cause confusion of social order, the enduring traditions of community and family are uprooted.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

कुल-घातियों के इन वर्णसंकरकारक दोषों से सनातन जाति-धर्म और कुल-धर्म नष्ट हो जाते हैं।

Commentary

Arjun widens the circle again, from family traditions (kula-dharma) to the duties of the whole community (jāti-dharma). His argument has become a chain of consequences — war, loss of elders, loss of tradition, social disorder — each step logical, and all of it built on the unspoken premise that he must decide based on the outcomes alone.
