Educational Q&A

The verse frames intense sound—anguished cries and Agni’s roar—as an omen-like cosmic reverberation, suggesting that human suffering and divine forces can coincide as signs of moral disturbance and impending consequence.

A terrifying outcry and the thunderous roaring associated with Agni make the whole sky seem to rumble like ominous storm clouds, heightening the sense of dread and signaling an inauspicious moment in the unfolding events.
