Based on Srimad-Bhagavatam Canto 4 Chapter 2 Text 10

How hubris, envy, and a goat's head reveal the universal trap of ego.

The foundational conflict detailed in the #ShrimatBhagavatam chronicles the cosmic clash between #Daksha and #LordShiva. Daksha, a figure of great authority, allowed his #Hubris and #Envy to dictate his actions after Shiva remained seated at an assembly, viewing this as a deliberate insult. This resulted in a vicious public verbal attack where Daksha called Shiva "shameless" (Nirapatra), condemned his lifestyle, and cursed him to be excluded from sacrifices. The source material emphasizes that judging a divine figure by purely material standards is an inferior calculation. This conflict led directly to #Sati's devastating act of loyalty: she burned her own body to ashes with yogic fire due to her father's wickedness. Shiva's resulting cosmic rage manifested as #Virabhadra, who violently dismantled Daksha's sacrifice and beheaded him. Shiva later showed mercy, restoring Daksha to life but replacing his head with a #GoatsHead, a crucial symbol of his overwhelming attachment to external status and #FalseEgo (#Ahankara). The central spiritual takeaway is the need for #ProfoundHumility, urging one to be "humbler than a blade of grass" and to welcome feedback for #InnerGrowth.
