Dhri said, “Parasuram realized that a brahmin could never have borne so much pain in silence. Only a kshatriya was capable of that. He accused Karna of having deceived him. And though Karna told him that he didn’t belong to the warrior-caste but was merely a charioteer’s son, Parasuram wouldn’t forgive him. He said, Just as you’ve deceived me, so will your mind deceive you. When you need the Brahmastra the most, you’ll forget the mantra needed to call it up. What you’ve stolen from me will be of no use to you in the hour of your death.”
