MAHABHARATA
To the grief-stricken Yudhishthira,
A story was narrated by Vyasa.
Brihaspati, the Gods' teacher,
He was an acclaimed master.
Samvarta his younger brother,
In all Vedas he was also a master.
King Marutta invited to his palace
Brihaspati to perform a sacrifice.
This sacrifice he refused to do,
So the younger was asked to do.
To Indra complained Brihaspati.
To stop it, Indra sent the fire-god Agni.
Agni couldn't stop the sacrifice.
The power of Samvarta in this
It was greater than what Agni had
So, Agni went back with face sad.
After several attempts Indra came,
He got the negative reply same.
In the battle that arose
As a victor Samvarta rose.
Indra reconciled and blessed him.
The king liberally praised him.
Brihaspati lost his prestige.
Samvarta gained his image.
This story Vyasa told.
Pandavas to be bold.
Not to mind envy,
And suffer thereby.
Envy is a deadly sin
This affects any one.
They suffer thereby.
But who shuns envy?
