Divine Verses of the Bhagavad Gita • Swami Dayananda Saraswati

They are of futile aspirations, futile actions, futile knowledge, and wrong intellect; and they take recourse only to the delusive nature that is both demoniac and devilish.
Their hopes are vain, their actions worthless, their knowledge futile; they are without sense, deceitful, barbarous and godless.
Senseless men entertain a nature which is deluding and akin to that of Raksasas (fiends) and Asuras (monsters). Their hopes are vain, acts are vain and knowledge is vain.
Of vain hopes, of vain actions, of vain knowledge, and senseless, they become verily possessed of the deceptive disposition of fiends and demons.
Of vain hopes, of vain actions, of vain knowledge and senseless, they verily are possessed of the deceitful nature of demons and undivine beings.

O son of Prtha! The great-souled men, however, taking hold of the divine nature and having nothing else in their minds, adore Me, viewing Me as the imperishable prime cause of beings.
But the Great Souls, O Arjuna! Filled with My Divine Spirit, they worship Me, they fix their minds on Me and on Me alone, for they know that I am the imperishable Source of being.
But the great-souled ones, O Arjuna, who are associated with My divine nature, worship Me with unwavering mind, knowing Me to be the immutable source of beings.
