वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Extraordinary power (astra-vidyā) is ethically framed as a disciplined inheritance: it is transmitted by a qualified teacher to a worthy recipient, emphasizing responsibility, restraint, and legitimacy rather than mere possession of force.
Vaiśampāyana reports that the sage Bharadvāja, renowned as the foremost expert in astras, formally teaches Agniveśa the Agneya (fire) weapon, marking a moment of authorized instruction within the lineage of martial-spiritual knowledge.
