The naradhamas and the mudhas

tān ahaṁ dviṣataḥ krūrān saṁsāreṣu narādhamān
kṣipāmy ajasram aśubhān āsurīṣv eva yoniṣu
āsurīṁ yonim āpannā mūḍhā janmani janmani
mām aprāpyaiva kaunteya tato yānty adhamāṁ gatim

The disobedient asuras who are envious of the exalted position of the Supreme Lord are called the narādhamas (the lowest of the human being) and the mūḍhas (one who has no information of the spiritual realm).

The narādhamas and the mūḍhas who do not surrender to the Lotus feet of the Lord and still desire salvation—are in fact sent to the lowest regions of hell instead of getting salvation from the material existence.

Many false gurus who are known to be very learned men are sometimes seen to take part in the rotten politics which is the last shelter of the scoundrel, because in spite of their erudition and hard penances they had no faith in the Person of the Supreme Lord. Due to an impersonal conception of their spiritual culture, they cannot have a position in the realm of transcendental service. As such they fall down even from their exalted position by the laws of nature and sometimes they take pleasure in the bunglings of dirty politics. As such they are sent into the cells of the prison walls and instead of becoming one with the impersonal Brahman, they become one of the so many criminal prisoners.

In that way, the mūḍhas and the Narādhamas do not get the shelter of the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord and are forced to take birth in the species of the demons or lower-grade living beings. That is the progress of life in the wrong direction attained by the class of mūḍhas and narādhamas.
