aham = I;
samsareshu = into the ocean of material existence ( life );
asurishu yonishu eva = certainly to the demonic wombs only;

Tatvam (Essence) :
Slokam-19 : "Those who are envious and mischievous, who are the lowest among men, are cast by Me into the ocean of material existence, into various demoniac species of life."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commentary :
In this slokam it is clearly indicated that the placing of a particular individual soul in a particular body is the prerogative of the supreme will. The demoniac person may not agree to accept the supremacy of the Lord, and it is a fact that he may act according to his own whims, but his next birth will depend upon the decision of the Supreme Personality of Godhead and not on himself. In the SrImad-Bhagavatam, Third Canto, it is stated that an individual soul, after his death, is put into the womb of a mother where he gets a particular type of body under the supervision of superior power. Therefore in the material existence we find so many species of life-animals, insects, men, and so on. All are arranged by the superior power. They are not accidental. As for the demoniac, it is clearly said here that they are perpetually put into the wombs of demons, and thus they continue to be envious, the lowest of mankind. Such demoniac species of life are held to be always full of lust, always violent and hateful and always unclean. They are just like so many beasts in a jungle.
Wherever the demoniac may chance to take birth, these vile, evil, degraded living entities who blaspheme and spite the Supreme Lord are kept revolving in samsara or the perpetual cycle of birth and death and flung into lower and more degraded forms of life. Since the demoniac adamantly desire to be irreversibly opposed to the Supreme Lords Krishna's divine will, He permits them to pursue their wishes and they are hurled into demoniac wombs birth after birth in order that their aversion to Him will be increased. Impelled by the Supreme Lord's sanction their desires are satisfied and they receive the opportunity in a suitable demoniac environment to exercise their free will and voraciously vent their vile, evil and degraded nature.
After describing the activities and characteristics of those possessing a demoniac nature; Lord Krishna explains in this verse and the next the consequence of such. The demoniac are the vilest among created beings. They are evil, diabolical, devilish, cruel, sinful and spiteful; executing abominable activities that are always opposed to Lord Krishna and sanatan dharma the path of eternal righteousness. The Supreme Lord who is fully cognizant of every aspect of His creation, continuously awards the demoniac the opportunity to oppose Him by assuring that the demoniac are hurled into demoniac wombs birth after birth after birth in order that their venomous nature can increase against Him which is their innate compulsive obsession.
The demoniac never deviate from their diabolical evil nature. These despisers of righteousness, the Supreme Lord Krishna keeps incessantly revolving in samsara the perpetual cycle of birth and death. Because the demoniac are a perpetual offence to all creation the Supreme Lord sees that they are hurled into ever more and more degraded species with each successive birth until they take birth as ferocious beasts and cruel reptiles such as vicious tigers and envious snakes. This is the factual result of the sinful activities of the demoniac.
