The Ramayana Chapter 

The Ramanaya consists of various divine and outworldly characters that resonate with time and teach us lessons. Mariyada purhsottam Prabhu Shri Ram has always been the personification of an ideal man, but even Shri Ram can cause some blunders in the lore of fate. One such incident happened when Shri Ram decided to aid in the cause of the Vanara kingdom's prince Sugriva, who had his battles with Kishkinda king Vali, the elder brother of Sugriva and the father of Angada. Tables of times turned when Shri Ram arrowed down Vali, marking the victory of Sugriva, Further, Sugriva helped Shri Ram in building Ram Setu and the war in Lanka.

The shocking revelation beyond the lore

After the end of Yuga and Shri Ram left his human conscience after the lesson needful was taught to the world, he transformed back into Lord Vishnu. This is when Lord Indra and Suryadev came by to criticize Lord Vishnu for his actions in killing Vali. Vali was the son of Lord Indra and Sugriva was the son of Surya Dev. Beyond the relationship, the time was destined to witness the win of Vali, This is when Shri Ram's arrow turned the tables and changed the pre-destined fate. Knowing this, Lord Vishu promised that justice would be served and karma's wrath would prevail. 

The Mahabharata chapter

Poetic justice doesn't get any sweeter. This Dwapar Yuga told the tale of centuries to bestow that no matter how audacious things must be, karma comes back like a boomerang. In the Mahabharata, justice struck twice with the death of Karna at the hands of Arjuna and the passing of Lord Krishna. The reason behind this is that Lord Krishna, who was killed by the arrow of Adivasi hunter Jara, was an avatar of Vali or Lord Indra and quickly returned the arrow of Lord Vishnu's avatar, Lord Ram, to Lord Krishna. Meanwhile, Arjuna, son of Indra Dev, adied my Lord Vishnu's incarnation himself. Shri Krishna killed Surya Dev's son Karna in the Mahabharata battle to deliver the swift bow of justice and karma.
