चित्ते भ्रान्तिर्जायते... -देवसुत

चित्ते भ्रान्तिर्जायते मद्यपानद्भ्रान्ते चित्ते पापचर्यामुपेति
पापं क्रत्वा दुर्गतिं यान्ति मूढा स्तस्मान्मद्यं नवै पेयम् न पेयम् ||

English translation of Sanskrit Quote:
Consuming liquor (alcohol) causes the mind to be confused (chitta Bhranti - cannot decide what is right and what is wrong), as a result of which the drunkard commits sinful deeds (paapcharya) and thereby his condition becomes miserable (durgati). So, O, unwise persons (moodha), never drink liquor, NEVER.

Transliteration:
chitte bhrantirjAyate madyapAnad-bhrante, chhitte paapcharya-mupaeti,
pApam kritwA durgatim yAnti moodhAs-tadtmsAn-madyam navai paeyam na paeyam.
