Bhagavad Gita - Class 034 - Chapter 16 Slokas 13-15 Asuras' Words, Asuras' Ego & Asuras' Delusion - Class taken on 04 Dec 2022

Sloka 13 : Asuras' desires in their own words Why is silence golden? Does words one speak give us enough information on the kind of person? How does an Asura talk about his / her wealth? How does an Asura talk about his / her desires? How should we use our money? How many parts should our earnings be divided and for what purpose? What is the order to be followed with respect to the use of money? And what is the order we follow? How do the Asuras' boast with regards to their wealth? Sloka 14: Asuras' anger / ahamkaara in their own words What happens when too many desires are in our mind? How do desires manifest as in our personality? How does an asura talk about their rivals? Why would we want to destroy someone? Does destroying a rival help in really removing our hindrances? Why do the Asuras claim themselves to be Ishvara? Are they really what they claim themselves to be? Sloka 15: Asuras' delusion What is the effect if we give too much importance to money and wealth? is having a feeling of superiority on the basis of birth a good thing? Will performing yajnas and pooja give us punya at all times? What determines punya or papa? Why would an Asura like to do charity? What causes the Asuras to speak like this?
