sheltered in the wrong camp..

अमित्रं कुरुते मित्रं मित्रं द्वेष्टि हिनस्ति च।
कर्म चारभते दुष्टम् तमाहुर्मूढचेतसं॥३३
श्रीमहाभरते उद्योगपर्वणि प्रजागरण पर्वणि विदुरवाक्ये अद्ध्यायः ३३

amitraṁ kurute mitraṁ mitraṁ dveṣṭi hinasti ca|
karma cārabhate duṣṭam tamāhurmūḍhacetasaṁ||33
śrīmahābharate udyogaparvaṇi prajāgaraṇa parvaṇi viduravākye addhyāyaḥ 33

The respected statesman Vidura while presenting a treatise on good behaviour and desirable lifestyle to his elder brother and King Dhritarashtra, makes this stantement about a very foolish person.
" He is a crude and foolish person who takes a lot of interested in cultivating an avowed enemy as a friend, and is indifferent and inimical to his genuine friends, and is harbouring malice for  such genuine friends without reason,  and is  always enaged in evil deeds knowingly or unknowingly."

We find such persons everywhere.. They are paranoid.  They suspect whatever a genuine friends says for their welfare.  They have the knack of believing and befriending persons who are waiting to exploit and destroy them.. Maybe like a moth just buring itself to ashed falling on the fire mistaking it as some bright source of happiness, they invariably land up on the wrong camps.  And such people are not beyond committing any evil deeds in that bad company.  One notable quality possessed by them is that they will never change.
