ignorance; these are the marks of those who are born with demonic qualities, O Arjuna. (16.04)

are said to be for bondage. Do not grieve, O Arjuna, you are born with divine qualities. (16.05)
There are two types of human beings in this world: the
divine, and the demonic. The divine has been described at length, now hear from Me about the demonic, O
Arjuna. (16.06)

conduct nor truthfulness. (16.07) |
