An increase of unwanted population brings about a state of infernal life, both to the family and the destroyers of the family tradition. By ceasing the celebrations of sacred food and water offerings, the ancestors of such degraded families also fall down.

In the Srimad Bhagavatam 11.5.41 it says:



devarṣi—bhūtāpta—nṛṇāṁ pitṝṇāṁ

na kiṅkaro nāyam ṛṇī ca rājan

sarvātmanā yaḥ śaraṇaṁ śaraṇyaṁ

gato mukundaṁ parihṛtya kartam



Meaning:

"Anyone who had accepted the shelter of the Lotus Feet of Mukunda, the bestower of liberation, and has abandoned any kind of obligation, and had seriously adopted the path of devotional service, doesn't have obligations or duties to the demigods, the sages, the family members, the humanity, the forefathers or other living entities."
