DUR-YODHANA, “DIFFICULT TO BE SUBDUED "

A symbol of the desire-mind, the principle of kama-manas.

"Dur-yodhana (like Ravana) is a visible type of the evil principle in human nature for ever doing battle with the good and divine principle, symbolized by the five sons of Pandu." - MON.WILLIAMS, Indian Wisdom, p. 383.

“The 'hundred brothers" of Dur-yodhana are the desires.
