Rishi durbasa was an ancient Rishi or sage. Son of Atri and Anasuya.

He was quite famous for his short temper and anger issues. Because of his wisdom and knowledge, he was received everywhere with a great reverence.

He was born out of Shiva’s anger, he had ill tempered nature.

It’s been said that he had a major role in churning of the Ocean ( quite a famous and intense battle that happened between devas and Asuras ).

Apart from his short temper nature and anger issues , Durvasa was also known for his extraordinary boons.

According to Shiva purana, once while bathing in a river, Durvasa’s clothes were carried away by the river’s currents. Seeing this, Draupadi, who was nearby, gave her own clothes to the sage.

Durvasa blessed her by saying that she wouldn’t lack clothes at the time of requirement & it was due to his blessing that the Kauravas were unable to strip off her clothes in the famous Dyut sabha, led by Mama Shakuni, thus protecting her modesty.
