Bhagavad-ဤခံ As It loses
[Ch. 3]
mind and the senses become the repositories of lust. Next, the intelligence department becomes the capital of such lustful propensities. Intelligence is the immediate next-door neighbor of the spirit soul. Lusty intelligence influences the spirit soul to acquire the false ego and identify itself with matter, and thus with the mind and senses. The spirit soul becomes addicted to enjoying the material senses and mistakes this as true happiness. This false identification of the spirit soul is very nicely explained in the  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam :
yasyātma-buddhiḥ kuṇāpe tri-dhātuke sva-dhīḥ kalatrādiṣu bhauma idyadhīḥ yat-tīrtha-buddhiḥ salite na karhicij janeṣv abhijñeṣu sa eva gokharah.
“A human being who identifies this body made of three elements with his self, who considers the by-products of the body to be his kinsmen, who considers the land of birth as worshipable, and who goes to the place of pilgrimage simply to take a bath rather than meet men of transcendental knowledge there, is to be considered as an ass or a cow.”
TEXT 41
तस्मात्त्वमिन्द्रियाण्यादौ नियम्य भरतर्षभ । पाप्मानं प्रजहि ह्येनं ज्ञानविज्ञाननाशनम् ॥४१॥
tasmāt tvam indriyāṇy ādau niyamya bharatarṣabha pāpmānaṁ prajahi hy enaṁ jñāna-vijñāna-nāśanam
tasmāt —therefore;  tvam —you;  indriyāṇi —senses;  ādau —in the beginning;  niyamya —by regulating;  bharatarṣabha —O chief amongst the descendants of Bharata;  pāpmānam —the great symbol of sin;  prajahi —curb;  hi —certainly;  enam —this;  jñāna —knowledge;  vijñāna —scientific knowledge of the pure soul;  nāśanam —destroyer.
TRANSLATION
Therefore, O Arjuna, best of the Bhāratas, in the very beginning curb this great symbol of sin [lust] by regulating the senses, and slay this destroyer of knowledge and self-realization.
