Krodha (; Tibetan Wylie: khro ba) is a Dharmic term in Buddhism and Hinduism that is translated as "fury", "rage", or "indignation". Within the Mahayana Abhidharma tradition, krodha is identified as one of the twenty subsidiary unwholesome mental factors. It is defined as an increase of anger (Sanskrit: pratigha) that causes one to prepare to harm others.
According to Herber Guenther, the difference between anger (pratigha) and fury (krodha) is that anger is a vindictive or hostile attitude in one's mind, but fury is an increase in anger when the chance for harming is at hand and is it very agitated state of mind leading to actual physical harm.
Alexander Berzin states:
Note that according to Berzin, dvesha is a sub-category of anger (pratigha).
