Without help and protection from God, he could not do all this. The evil forces had been too long in controlling humans. That was one reason why Madrais do it all. He wished everyone would know that good and bad control the whole human soul and close the mind and senses. No wonder the cofined body soul enclosure wants to escape from the forces of evil.In the other hand, it also contains Prince Madrais teachings. The existence of humans and nature is not the will of human but God so all the creatures must accept what God has decided. In the form of blood, God created humans into nations.
