Chapter 16 verse 6
“There are two kinds of beings in this world—those endowed with a divine nature and those possessing a demoniac nature. I have described the divine qualities in detail, O Arjuna. Now hear from me about the demoniac nature.”
In
the spectrum of beings, 2 ends of the spectrum are the divine being and the
demonic being. Different yugas or eons have different distributions of these
beings. It is said that during the satya or krita yuga, daivas and asuras were
in separate worlds, in tretha yuga there resided in the same world or planet,
in dwapara yuga they resided in the same family and in kali yuga they reside in
the same person! Bhagwan had earlier enumerated in detail the divine qualities
in beings. He had briefly articulated the demonic qualities and is about to
illustrate those in detail.
