The Harsh Sound: a past life story 9. Kharassarajātaka

When cows were plundered and killed, “Yato viluttā ca hatā ca gāvo, houses burned down, and people abducted, Daḍḍhāni gehāni jano ca nīto; then came the son of she whose son is dead, Athāgamā puttahatāya putto, sounding the harsh drum of war. Kharassaraṁ ḍiṇḍimaṁ vādayanto”ti.

Kharassarajātakaṁ navamaṁ.
