इदमद्य मया लब्धमिमं प्राप्स्ये मनोरथम् ।
इदमस्तीदमपि मे भविष्यति पुनर्धनम् ॥ १६.१३ ॥
असौ मया हतः शत्रुर्हनिष्ये चापरानपि ।
ईश्वरोऽहमहं भोगी सिद्धोऽहं बलवान्सुखी ॥ १६.१४ ॥
आढ्योऽभिजनवानस्मि कोऽन्योऽस्ति सदृशो मया ।
यक्ष्ये दास्यामि मोदिष्य इत्यज्ञानविमोहिताः ॥ १६.१५ ॥

प्रसक्ताः कामभोगेषु पतन्ति नरकेऽशुचौ ॥ १६.१६ ॥

They feel proud of whatever they inflict on those whom they hate. Without rhyme or reason, they go on destroying those whom they dislike or who stand in their way. They may even proclaim themselves as God Incarnate. They cite their own reason to support their atrocities. They feel they are the most powerful and the most fortunate. None can match them. All else are but inferior. They perform yajñas and yāgas with their own wicked motives. They are lavish in giving gifts for the purpose.

By that they feel confident of religious sanction and support for what they do. But in reality they are tottering in ignorance. Confounded, overpowered by the powerful thoughts of destruction and given to unjust passions, they end up in the foulest of hells (16.15 & 16).
