अध्याय ३३७ — ज्ञानमार्ग-वैविध्यप्रश्नः तथा व्यासस्य नारायणोद्भवकथा
Systems of Knowledge and Vyāsa’s Nārāyaṇa-Origin
बृहस्पतिस्तत:ः क्रुद्धः ख्तुचमुद्यम्य वेगित: । आकाशं घ्नन् खुच: पातै रोषादश्रूण्यवर्तयत्,यह देख बृहस्पति क्रोधमें भर गये। उन्होंने बड़े वेगसे खुवा उठा लिया और आकाशभमें उसे दे मारा। साथ ही वे रोषवश अपने नेत्रोंसे आँसू बहाने लगे
Bṛhaspatis tataḥ kruddhaḥ khvucaṁ udyamya vegitaḥ | ākāśaṁ ghnan khvucaḥ pātaiḥ roṣād aśrūṇy avartayat ||
ພີສະມະກ່າວວ່າ: «ແລ້ວບຣິຫັສປະຕິໂກດເກີນທົນ. ພຣະອົງຍົກຄະວູຈະ (khvuca) ຂຶ້ນດ້ວຍຄວາມໄວ ແລະຟາດມັນໃສ່ຟ້າອາກາດຊໍ້າໆ. ຖືກຄວາມໂກດຄອບງໍາ ພຣະອົງຍັງຫຼັ່ງນ້ໍາຕາອອກຈາກດວງຕາ.»

Educational Q&A
Even a highly learned and revered figure can be overtaken by krodha (anger). The episode underscores the ethical need for self-restraint: when anger rises, it can distort judgment, turn power into harm, and lead to actions later regretted.
Bṛhaspati becomes furious, lifts a khvuca, and strikes it against the sky with force. In the intensity of his wrath, he sheds tears—an image highlighting the extremity of his emotional agitation.
