The following 18 pages are in this category, out of 18 total.
A
- Although Hiranyakasipu was a demon, he is described here (SB 7.8.11) by the added word sri. Why? The answer is that fortunately he had such a great devotee son as Prahlada Maharaja
- Although Kamsa is described as a demon, he had good knowledge of the affairs of atma-tattva, the truth of the self

- Ravana, for example, was a great devotee of Lord Siva, but he is described as an asura. Similarly, Hiranyakasipu is described as a great devotee of Lord Brahma, yet he was also an asura
T
- The asuras are described here as mudha-dhiyah, meaning that they are captivated by ignorance, just like the ass. The demons were captivated by the false, glaring beauty of this material form, and thus they embraced her (the evening twilight)
- The asuras are generally strongly built, as described here, and therefore their mental condition is very sound, and their prowess is also extraordinary
- There is no need to accumulate money in the bank merely to increase one's bank balance. Such a mentality is described in Bhagavad-gita (BG 16.13) as asuric, demoniac
