AgastyaV
Vātāpi (as ‘brother’)FAQs
Uncontrolled krodha leads to adharma; instead of accepting the result of wrongdoing, Ilvala chooses further violence against a righteous sage.
After learning Vātāpi is dead, Ilvala reacts with rage and moves to attack Agastya.
By contrast, the virtue upheld by the sage is kṣamā/śama (self-control), while Ilvala embodies its opposite.
