Bhagvad Gita describes the effect of anger on a person's downfall in a particular verse. The verse is as following - क्रोधाद् ‍ भवति सम्मोहः सम्मोहात्स्मृतिविभ्रमः । स्मृतिभ्रंशाद् बुद्धिनाशो बुद्धिनाशात्प्रणश्यति ॥ 2.63 ॥ Bg 2.63   — From anger, complete delusion arises, and from delusion bewilderment of memory.
