My dear Maitreya, to part with one’s life is very difficult. Would you kindly explain to me how such a son-in-law and father-in-law could quarrel so bitterly that the great goddess Satī could give up her life?

Translation
Please explain to me the hatred between the son-in-law and father-in-law because of which Satī gave up her life, which is hard to give up?
Yataḥ means “from which hatred.” Please tell me about the hatred by which she gave her life.
