To this day, countless people have come to wreak havoc on nature and caused devastation. Nature wreaked havoc on them all. They were all destroyed. Being powerful is a wonderful thing, but taking advantage of power unjustly leads to complete destruction. It is repeatedly said, “In times of destruction, wisdom is corrupted.” When someone is destroyed, their wisdom is corrupted.
Therefore, even after accumulating many powers, accomplished great men do not believe that the power is their own. They always consider those powers to be the power of God. The saying behind this is that excessive power destroys a person’s wisdom. No one in the world was more powerful than Ravana. Ravana possessed a wealth of wisdom. Yet, Ravana’s power destroyed all his relatives, including himself.
