How did Baba address the deep-seated enmity between the snake and the frog, and what was the immediate result of his intervention?

In the narrative from Chapter 47, Baba confronts the ancient conflict directly. He addresses the creatures by their past-life names, Veerabhadrappa (the snake) and Basappa (the frog), showing his knowledge of their karmic history. He questions why their 'bone-deep enmity' persists even after being reborn into different forms and urges them to feel shame and give up the feud. The effect of Baba's words was instantaneous and powerful. The text states, 'As soon as the words left the mouth, the snake fled, leaving the frog; Quickly entering the deep water, he disappeared from there.' The frog also jumped away and hid, demonstrating the profound impact of Baba's spiritual instruction in resolving a conflict that transcended lifetimes.
