manifestation of ego, that is, ego desires to own the experience. In

owning the experience that brings enjoyment, the ego eats it up, and

it's taken away from pure conciousness. In other words, the asuras

steal the offering from the Gods, which is given to the divine fire.

The asuras are the ego, the Gods are the pure conciousness which is

experiencing existence, and the divine fire is life in the world. Far

better to be happy with what ever life brings, taking it all as prasad,

some tasty and some not so tasty, but all reaping the fruit of karma,

and seeking only for divine grace. Only - love and trust in God.
