Why: there are two kinds of created beings in this world, the divine and the demonic, the divine has been described at length, hear now from me about the demonic, Arjuna, transitioning explicitly into the harder half of the description.
In life: it's often more comfortable to focus only on admirable qualities to cultivate and skip past directly naming the corrosive ones, but real growth usually requires being willing to look at both halves clearly.
Teaching: make sure your own reflection on character includes honestly naming the corrosive patterns you're working against, not just the admirable qualities you're working toward, both halves matter for genuine growth.
