Bhagavad Gita — Chapter 9, Verse 3

अश्रद्दधानाः पुरुषा धर्मस्यास्य परन्तप । अप्राप्य मां निवर्तन्ते मृत्युसंसारवर्त्मनि ॥ ३ ॥

aśhraddadhānāḥ puruṣhā dharmasyāsya parantapa aprāpya māṁ nivartante mṛityu-samsāra-vartmani

Translation

People who have no faith in this dharma, O scorcher of foes, do not reach me and return to the path of death and worldly existence.

Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)

हे परंतप! इस उपर्युक्त धर्म में श्रद्धा-रहित पुरुष मुझको न प्राप्त होकर मृत्यु रूप संसार-चक्र में भ्रमण करते रहते हैं।

Commentary

Faith (śhraddhā) is the doorway. Without it, even the "easiest" path cannot be walked, and one keeps circling in the cycle of death and rebirth.
