Really. And that is why so good and almost a necessity to have projects like what 'Ravayana'. And if that is the case, then we, the others, the ones in the middle, well yes it is a mystery, as to how we should be or can be.

So the godliness and demonicness (is that a word?) are sort of moral markers against which to establish how good or bad we are.

So here's my take on the above theme, and which is that though these 'others' were meant to be different from either, both the parties made it a point to constantly tempt. Yup, for gods and demons,'taking over' these middling others became a priority. And hence this breakdown, and a constant yo-yo, people caught between their angels or demons, not knowing what it is to be truly human. Aha,a short and sweet one.
