Shloka 11
Ṛśyaśṛṅgopākhyāna-praveśaḥ — Lomāśa narrates the origins of Ṛśyaśṛṅga and the Anga drought (ऋश्यशृङ्गोपाख्यान-प्रवेशः)
एवमेतानि कर्माणि राजंस्तेन महर्षिणा । कृतानि कानिचित् क्रोधात् प्रतिषिद्धानि कानिचित्
evametāni karmāṇi rājan tena maharṣiṇā | kṛtāni kānicit krodhāt pratiṣiddhāni kānicit
அரசே! இவ்வாறு அந்த மகரிஷி சில செயல்களைச் செய்தார்; சிலவற்றை கோபத்தால் தடை செய்தார்.

Educational Q&A
The verse contrasts actions properly undertaken by a sage with prohibitions issued in anger, implying that spiritual authority and power must be guided by self-control; wrath distorts judgment and can turn guidance into harsh restraint.
Lomāśa addresses a king and summarizes that a certain great sage both performed some deeds and, when anger arose, forbade some others—setting up a moral frame for the surrounding story about conduct, restraint, and the consequences of krodha.
