What is the outcome of the divine and demoniac traits, O Lord? Divine traits are regarded as conducive to liberation while the demoniac nature as conducive to bondage. But O Pandava, you should not grieve, for you are born with divine virtues.(5) How is demoniacal nature conducive to bondage? There are two types of men in this world—divine and demoniacal. The divine type has been described at length; hear from Me the demoniacal also. Men of demoniacal nature don't know what to do and what to refrain from. Hence they possess neither purity nor good conduct nor truth.(6-7) O Lord, why do they not possess purity etc.? Their intellect is reverse. They say that the world is unreal and without a moral basis, Godless, born of mutual union of man and woman, brought about by lust; what else?(8) |
