Translated Text:
Between these two,
the seekers of false gods did not decide correctly,
because delusion came to them in their deliberations.
Therefore, they chose the worst mind,
rushed in wrath,
and afflicted the human existence.
Commentary:
Supporters of falsehood do not decide correctly. They are deluded by blind faith and lack the discernment between right and wrong. Choosing wrong means invoking destructive thinking and resorting to wrath that will consequently hurt the world and human life.
Pondering Point:
“Falsehood misguides. Misguidance results in frustration, fury, brute force, and destruction.”
