Srimad Bhagavadgita Sadhaka Sanjivani -Swami Ramsukhdas
Chapter 16
The term Deva', in 'Daivi sampada, denotes God. Being a fragment of God, a man possesses divine nature, naturally. But, when he (soul), having a disinclination for God, has an inclination for prakrti (nature) i.e., he identifies himself, with the perishable body etc., demoniac nature manifests, itself in him and all evil propensities, such as lust, anger, greed, delusion, hypocrisy, envy and jealousy etc., arise in him. The desire to maintain life-breath happily, is an important mark, of a man of demoniac nature.
