SUMMARY: Sri Madhwacharyaru, who had been seen as a person meant to be punished, appeared like a person capable of governing the State. Even though he could proceed by force, he did not do so because he wanted to show to the pupils how a person should handle precarious situations.

The king could immediately know that Sri Madhwaru was a great saint philosopher and deserved utmost reverence, unlike his soldiers and servants.

SUMMARY: Once, a group of thugs/robbers attacked Sri Madhwacharyaru and his pupils; Sri Madhwaru asked his pupils to stay in a place, rolled one of his loin clothes into the shape of a ball, threw it among the robbers, luring them to think that the rolled cloth contained a bounty and they started fighting among themselves to usurp the wealth. It was like Arjuna luring the Samshaptakaru to fight among them and get destroyed.

The ball-shapped cloth was seen as containing wealth or money by the robbers. Sri Vayudevaru is the controller of psyche or mind. The rolled cloth was mistaken to be containing gold. Bhava Prakashika describes the incident as:

KaratalagatapaTapinDam kanakamiti vichintya maDhwam hantukAmA prasparam jaGhnuhu|

करतलगतपटपिन्डं कनकमिति विचिन्त्य मध्वं हन्तुकामा परस्पर जघ्नुः।

The primary intention of the robbers was to kill Sri Madhwaru and rob whatever he and his pupils were carrying. Sri Madhwaru was passing through a dense forest when this incident occurred. However, the situation was transformed into an internal brawl and later into an infighting whereby the robbers killed one another.

Arjuna had fired Sammohanastra among the Samshaptakas. The result was similar. The Samshaptakas fought each other and got destroyed.
