‘This enemy has been killed by me, and I will kill the others also. I am the Lord, I am the enjoyer, I am perfect, powerful, happy.’

The false self-identification continues. Justified violence: enemies eliminated, more to come. The proclamation īśvaraḥ aham — “I am the Lord” is the supreme ontological error, confusing the jīva with the Puruṣottama.

The self-descriptions accumulate: bhogī (enjoyer), siddhaḥ (perfect/accomplished), balavān (powerful), sukhī (happy). All are false attributes superimposed on the limited ego. The asura is the paradigm of unrestrained ahaṅkāra.
