O King! The cut pieces pleaded to Indra with folded hands. "O Indra! Why are you are killing your brothers, the Maruts?"

They pleaded with folded hands: 'Dear Indra, we are the Maruts, your brothers; why kill us?' Naming relationship interrupts violence.
Reflection Questions
- Whose name 'brother' could disarm a current conflict?
- Have I let titles obscure relationships?
