Paliwanag

In a single short verse Krishna names the demonic endowment: hypocrisy, arrogance, conceit, anger, harshness and ignorance. The contrast with the long list of divine qualities is deliberate. The demonic traits are few but powerful, and they share a common root in an inflated sense of oneself. The term demonic (āsura) draws on old stories of conflict between gods and asuras, but here it describes tendencies within human character rather than supernatural beings.
