Acharya Prashant discusses the nature of the demonic disposition as described in the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita, where individuals are deluded by ignorance, lust, and the pursuit of wealth and power. He addresses the question of why people frequently switch between divine and demonic states, explaining that this movement is ultimately a matter of personal choice. Even when one claims to act unconsciously, the initial decision to enter an unconscious state—such as choosing to drink or associating with certain influences—is a conscious one. He emphasizes that human beings are unique because they have the freedom to choose their central life philosophy, which distinguishes them from animals and from one another.
