Bhagavad Gītā · 14.7
रजो रागात्मकं विद्धि तृष्णासङ्गसमुद्भवम् । तन्निबध्नाति कौन्तेय कर्मसङ्गेन देहिनम् ॥

rajo rāgātmakaṃ viddhi tṛṣṇāsaṅgasamudbhavam । tannibadhnāti kaunteya karmasaṅgena dehinam ॥

“Know passion as made of craving, born of thirst and clinging; it binds the dweller, O son of Kuntī, by clinging to deeds.”
