Are they perpetually put into the wombs of demons?
Bhagavad-gita As It Is 16.19
Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, are
cast by Me into the ocean of material existence, into various demoniac species
of life.
PURPORT
In this verse it is clearly indicated that the
placing of a particular individual soul in a particular body is the prerogative
of the supreme will. The demoniac person may not agree to accept the supremacy
of the Lord, and it is a fact that he may act according to his own whims, but
his next birth will depend upon the decision of the Supreme Personality of
Godhead and not on himself. In the Srimad-Bhagavatam, Third Canto, it is stated
that an individual soul, after his death, is put into the womb of a mother
where he gets a particular type of body under the supervision of superior
power. Therefore in the material existence we find so many species of
life-animals, insects, men, and so on. All are arranged by the superior power.
They are not accidental. As for the demoniac, it is clearly said here that they
are perpetually put into the wombs of demons, and thus they continue to be
envious, the lowest of mankind. Such demoniac species of life are held to be
always full of lust, always violent and hateful and always unclean. They are
just like so many beasts in a jungle.
