Love and Desire
The Buddha taught to abandon all the desire and even hope for betterment of life in this world, since every action, except ascetic training, in this world will result in evil.
But even when a man is practicing ascetic training, Satan would come to interfere and try to have the man abandon the training by arousing his worldly desire, according to Buddhism.
Christ Jesus taught to love God with all of the heart and the power of a man, since God is almighty and He is the lord and the heavenly father of everyone.
But when a man is trying to love God with all of the heart and the power, Satan would come to distract a man from love to God by showing money, wealth, and worldly riches that would satisfy his worldly desire, according to the Bible.
So, the issue is human desire. And the matter is that Satan is accompanying human desire. Therefore, if a man can luckily live while satisfying fully his desire, he would be a prey to Satan eventually.
We should be afraid of Satan to the degree that we would gladly abandon our desire. Or we should be afraid of punishment by God to the degree that we would forget our desire.
However, believers who are happy to love God with all of their hearts and power must be out of the range of Satan's curse.
