Gita reflection Ch 16 verses 11 & 12

4th November 2024


When we consider the qualities of a demoniac person, it seems like a large portion of the human population could fall into this category. 

Lord Krishna says: "They prioritize material possessions as the ultimate goal in life, and are burdened with countless worries that last until death."

When people don't recognize liberation as the highest aim in life, often due to a lack of exposure to spiritual knowledge from scriptures or a Guru, they tend to imitate those who pursue immediate pleasures and temporary happiness.

Lord Krishna further explains, "To enjoy these objects, they accumulate wealth through dishonesty and deceit. They are tied down by their desires and are easily swayed by passion and anger."
