The Yoga of the Division between the Divine and the Non-Divine

Krishna describes the demonic condition: 'cintām aparimeyāṁ ca pralayāntām upāśritāḥ'—obsessed with endless anxieties that end only with death. This is the paradox: they're consumed by worry, anxiety, fear—and it never ends until death. Every achievement creates new anxieties. Every desire fulfilled creates new worries. 'Kāmopabhogaparame'—gratification of desires is supreme, 'etāvad iti niścitāḥ'—they are completely convinced that this is all there is. Despite being consumed by anxiety, they believe that desire gratification and wealth accumulation is the highest purpose. This is the delusion: they're suffering from endless anxieties, yet they're convinced that pursuing desires is the answer. They don't see the connection: their pursuit of desires is creating the anxieties. They're trapped in a cycle: desire → anxiety → more desire → more anxiety, until death.
