If a man knowing my power, tries to destroy me by muttering prayers, etc., I prevail over him by deluding him with the belief that I am the ego within him. If he desire to destroy me by means of sacrifices with many presents, I deceive hiin by appearing in his mind as a most virtuous creature amongst the mobile creation, and if he wish to destroy me by mastering the Vedas and its auxiliaries, I overreach him by appearing to his mind to be the soul of virtue amongst the immobile creation.
