Krodh - Anger
Destructive wrath that harms self and others, clouding judgment and wisdom.
Krodh is anger that destroys peace and relationships. While righteous indignation against injustice is acceptable, uncontrolled anger consumes the one who harbors it.
Anger is the fire that burns the soul.
Anger must be transformed into compassionate action.
