00:00Your brother enters a dark cave. Blood flows out. Do you seal him inside? Imagine holding a stone,
00:06deciding if you are saving a kingdom or burying him. The Ramayana records this fatal misunderstanding
00:11in Kishinda. Bali, the mighty Vanara monkey king, ruled with his brother Sugriva. A demon named
00:16Mayavi challenged Bali, then fled into a deep cavern. Bali followed commanding Sugriva,
00:21wait here until I return. One year passed in silence. Sugriva stood guard outside, shivering.
00:26Think about the agony of guarding your brother's silent stone grave. Suddenly frothy blood bubbled
00:31from the cave, followed by demonic rose. No sound of Bali came. Sugriva wept, believing him dead.
00:37To trap the demon, Sugriva hauled a massive boulder over the cavern mouth. He wept,
00:41forgive me brother, and sealed the tomb. Returning home, the ministers crowned Sugriva to protect the
00:46empty throne. But Bali survived. He had won, only to find himself buried alive. He shattered the stone,
00:53saw Sugriva wearing his crown, and roared. Believing it was reason, Bali banished his brother and stole
00:58his wife. The seal cave became a tragic war. Fear makes us bury our allies. Follow for tomorrow's
01:04story from the Puranas.
