Sinabi ni Duryodhana: “O Hari, noon si Rāma (Paraśurāma), matapos makamtan mula sa Mapalad na Śiva ang lahat ng banal na sandata at maraming biyayang minimithi ng kanyang puso, ay yumukod at nagpatirapa sa paanan ni Śiva. Pagkaraan, ang dakilang asetang si Paraśurāma, nang mapahintulutan ng Diyos ng mga diyos na si Śiva, ay lumisan.”

Educational Q&A
Spiritual power and martial power are portrayed as arising from devotion, discipline, and rightful seeking: Paraśurāma gains weapons and boons through Śiva’s grace, and he responds with humility—bowing and taking leave—showing that even great power should be framed by reverence and restraint.
Duryodhana recounts that Paraśurāma (called Rāma) obtained all divine weapons and desired boons from Śiva, offered respectful prostration at Śiva’s feet, received Śiva’s permission, and then departed.
