* "It is a Brāhmin's anger which, like fire, burnt down the great dynasty of the Yādavas and of Sāgara—the distinguished king of the Lunar race. It is a Brāhmin's anger, again, which has placed a blot on the Moon's surface. Even the god of fire, Agni Deva, and the god of the sky, Indra Deva, have been subject in their turn to a Brāhmanical curse. A Brāhmin's anger has made the waters of the great sea saline. Even the greatest of the gods, Viṣṇu, bears the mark of a Brāhmin's kick on his bosom."
