Chapter 16 - The Divine and Demoniac Natures

This episode in Bhagavad Gita As It Is describes two contrasting paths in life: the divine and the demoniac. The divine path is characterized by virtues like fearlessness, knowledge, and compassion, ultimately leading to liberation. The demoniac path, on the other hand, is marked by vices such as pride, anger, and greed, and leads to suffering and a cycle of rebirth. The text emphasizes that following scriptural injunctions is crucial for achieving the supreme destination.
