Measured, persuasive speech and wise counsel can pacify anger; accepting good advice is a mark of self-control and a prerequisite for dharmic action.
Mārkaṇḍeya narrates that Avindhya addresses the enraged Rāvaṇa with various arguments and words, successfully calming him, after which Rāvaṇa agrees to and accepts Avindhya’s counsel.
