The story mentions Veerabhadrappa and Basappa. Who were they, and what was the nature of their enmity as revealed in the text?

📖 Chapter 47

The narrative in Chapter 47 explains that Veerabhadrappa and Basappa were two individuals whose 'bone-deep enmity' was so profound that it carried over into their subsequent lives as a snake and a frog, respectively. When Baba encountered the snake, he directly addressed it as Veerabhadrappa. He questioned why this snake had not yet seen repentance in its enemy Basappa, who had taken the form of a frog. Baba urged them both to feel shame and abandon their long-held animosity, indicating their conflict was an ancient one that transcended a single lifetime.
