Educational Q&A
Unchecked mutual fear destabilizes a community; the remedy proposed is legitimate, ritually sanctioned leadership (abhiṣeka) to restore order and security.
Śalya reports a situation of pervasive mutual fear and urges the addressed king (rājendra) to undergo consecration and assume sovereignty in Triviṣṭapa (heaven).
