Mahāpārśva-vadhaḥ — The Slaying of Mahāpārśva (Angada’s Counterstrike)
तंम्तैलधौतंविमलंशैलसारमयंदृढम् ।।।।राक्षसःपरमक्रुद्धोवालिपुत्रेन्यपातयत् ।
taṃ tailadhautaṃ vimalaṃ śailasāramayaṃ dṛḍham |
rākṣasaḥ paramakruddho vāliputre nyapātayat ||
That Rākṣasa, enraged beyond measure, hurled at Vāli’s son the firm battle-axe—oil-polished, spotless and bright, hard as mountain rock.
Extremely enraged Rakshasa, hurled at Vali's son that axe that was cleansed with oil, the clean strong axe that was like feet of a mountain.
The text shows how rage seeks to maximize injury; Dharma’s counter-teaching is that strength must be governed by righteousness and proportionate response.
Mahāpārśva retaliates by throwing a heavy axe at Aṅgada.
Implicitly, the needed virtue is viveka (discernment) in combat—choosing action without being driven by blind fury.
