The Sin that shook Gods

Summary: Indra’s Fall and the Churning of Fate





In the celestial realms, Indra, the king of the gods, seeks
answers about virtue, sin, and atonement from Brihaspati, his
divine guru. Their discussion unveils the consequences of sins
committed through thought, speech, and action—particularly the
grave sins of intoxication and forbidden physical relations.





As the conversation deepens, Brihaspati reveals a dark secret
from Indra’s past. Long ago, Indra committed Brahmahatya, the
ultimate sin—killing the sage Vishvarupa in suspicion of
betrayal.
