Parasurama was the fourth son of sage
Jamadhagni and Vasugi. The sage was a highly learned person and used
to teach vedas and sasthras to a number of disciples. Those days
young princes and children of humble parents used to stay together
without any distinction with the master.
Parasurama was one of the disciples and was extremely obedient to his father besides being a very diligent student. He learnt all the sasthras taught by his father in earnestness.
Vasugi sage jamadhagni's wife was very devoted to her husband and her children and looked after all the students with kindness and great care. Everday she used to go to the river closed by very early in the morning to bathe. After taking bath she would make an earthern pot and fetch water for the family.
One day as she was making the pot a 'Gandharva' ( celestial beings) passed over-head in the sky. She saw the reflection of the gandharva in the river water and was struck by the handsome features just for a moment. That wavering of the mind was considered being untrue to her husband. As a result that day however much she tried she could not make the pot. It broke every time she shaped it. Vasugi was unnerved by this and was afraid to go home. Sage Jamadhagni sensed this through his mental powers and became incensed that his wife admired the beauty of some one other than her husband. Wanting to punish her he ordered Parasurama to behead his mother. Being an obedient son he immediately carried out his father's order.
However Parasurama was over come with great grief and also felt very angry towards his father. He developed a cruel nature though he remained a sage all his life.

From this though this incarnation is a human being but not complete still he has the animal natures killing so this incarnation shows if any human beings have cruel nature that nature it self will kill him by his own consciousness
