The Divine And The Demonic

Each human being is a fascinating combination of divine and demonic qualities. We all have the devil in us; something that makes us pursue self-destructive ways. Yet, even the worst among us has extraordinarily divine traits. Our success depends on how well we are able to operate out of our own goodness and marginalise the demonic qualities. Bhagwad Gita Chapter 16 enumerates 26 qualities of the divine and six qualities of the demonic. Krishna assures Arjuna that he is born of divine temperament. Some divine qualities listed are fearlessness,...
