Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2 Verse 42-43-44

Translation: O Arjun! Those who are getting engrossed in worldly pleasures, (who) only have attachment with the mantras of the Vedas, in whose minds, heaven is the only supreme thing to be attained and there is nothing else-this is what they say. This kind of flowery i.e. ostentatiously ornamental speech which those undiscerning people deliver, which leads to birth as a result of actions and which describes various kinds of rituals/activities for the attainment of worldly pleasures and luxuries; whose hearts have been stolen by that speech, who are strongly engrossed in the worldly pleasures and luxuries, those men do not seem to have a resolute mind in the concentration of the Supreme God.
