Idam adya maya labdham imam prapsye manoratham, idam astīdam api me bhavisyati punar dhanam
The demoniac person thinks: So much wealth do I have today, and I will gain more according to my schemes. So much is mine now, and it will increase in the future more and more. This verse captures the inner monologue of the demoniac mind — a ceaseless internal accounting of possessions past, present, and future, revealing a heart consumed by acquisitive greed.
- •The demoniac mind is perpetually occupied with calculating and planning the accumulation of more
- •Greed masquerades as planning and ambition in the demoniac consciousness
- •Satisfaction is permanently deferred — there is always more to acquire in the demoniac vision
