Educational Q&A

Mastery over anger is presented as a practical dharmic power: restrain one’s own wrath, calm others who are enraged, and avoid hostility toward any creature; this inner discipline enables one to overcome even formidable dangers.

In the Śānti Parva’s instruction on righteous conduct, Bhīṣma teaches Yudhiṣṭhira (and the listening assembly) about virtues that sustain peace after war, highlighting anger-control and the ability to pacify conflict as marks of the wise.
