“Entrenched in egoism, brute force, arrogance, craving, and rage, they hate me dwelling in their own bodies and in others' — sneering all the while.”
— Original plain-language translation
The final degradation: hatred of the divine within — one's own self and every other. Since Krishna dwells in all hearts (15.15), scorning beings is scorning him. Malice toward others is revealed as self-hatred in disguise.
