*************** Yeah, Mason is a jerk, but jerks/demons are part of creation, and in fact, creation COULD NOT EXIST without demons. Why? Because the jig would be up if life were too sattvic (transparent) -- it would be trying to play hide-and-so-seek with no trees to hide behind. So although the dull-witted and demonic level is dominant now, and will naturally be reduced in the natural course of time, there will always be some demonic activity, even in the Sat Yuga. >From Vasistha's Yoga p. 201 http://tinyurl.com/6xndt : "This seemingly unending world-appearance is sustained by impure (rajasa) and dull (tamasa) beings, even as a superstructure is sustained by pillars. But it is playfully and easily abandoned by those who are of a pure nature, even as the slough is effortlessly abandoned by a snake."
