Gita reflection Ch 16 verses 7 & 8

2nd November 2024


What sets apart a person of divine nature from one of demoniac nature? It is the clarity of understanding and discrimination.

It is said that Duryodhana, the Kaurva prince, once admitted: "I know what is right, but I cannot do it; I also know what is wrong, but I cannot stop doing it!"

Knowing what needs to be done is not enough; it should become natural and effortless. People of demoniac nature also lack purity, good conduct, and truthfulness.

The reason for their continued devilish behavior is attributed to their strong conviction that the world is without God and has no basis. Accordingly, they believe the world is a product of mutual attractions and passions.
