How did Parasurama realize that Kama was not a Brahmana? |
|
Answer» One day Parasurama was reclining with his head on Kama’s lap when a stinging worm burrowed into Kama’s thigh. Blood began to flow and the pain was terrible, but Kama bore it without tremor lest he should disturb the master’s sleep. Parasurama awoke and saw the blood which had poured from the wound. He said: “Dear pupil, you are not a brahmana. A kshatriya alone can remain unmoved under all bodily torments”. |
