Srila Jiva Gosvami explains this passage as follows: The Gandharvas, Siddhas, Vidyadharas and Caranas are adversaries of the Supreme Lord when they follow the lead of the Daitya and Danava demons. The Yakshas, Rakshasas, Pisacas and so on tend to be inimical because they are generally covered by ignorance. There are some rascals in the pure mode of ignorance, like Sisupala and Paundraka, who are totally absorbed in meditation on the Lord as their enemy, and this fixed consciousness earns them liberation. Others, in a mixed condition of passion and ignorance, associate with the Lord with a desire for position and prestige; Maharaja Bali sees himself as belonging to this category. Yet Lord Vishnu favored Bali by becoming his doorkeeper in the subterranean region of Sutala, just as He favored the demons by killing and liberating them, and the Gandharvas by engaging them in singing His glories. On the other hand, the Lord awards sense gratification to those demigods who are proud of their being situated in the mode of goodness; thus they become deluded and forget Him.
