In this scene, Ragyo implies that sin controls humanity and those who appeal to it thereby control humanity. She is cloaked by light, but take note of its form.
Satsuki, her daughter, rather staunchly reminds her mother that destiny - fate is a far more grand architecture than her simple machinations for mankind. Take note of how her light contrasts with that of her mother's.
To you, I will simply echo Satsuki's opening dialogue:
Fear is Freedom
Control is Liberty
Contradiction is Truth
Listen well, you pigs in human clothing and submit to the reality of this world.
