Shloka 7
रामस्य सुग्रीवप्रति रोषः — हनूमता सीतादर्शनवृत्तान्तः
Rāma’s Reproach of Sugrīva; Hanūmān’s Report of Seeing Sītā
अस्मात् परस्त्वेष महाधनुष्मान् पुत्र: कुलिन्दाधिपतेव॑रिष्ठ:
asmāt parastveṣa mahādhanuṣmān putraḥ kulindādhipate variṣṭhaḥ
«وخلف هذا الموضع يقف رامٍ عظيم القوس—الابنُ الأبرعُ لسيّدِ الكوليندا، المتميّزُ بين أهل نسبه.»
कोटिक उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how social identity (lineage and rulership) and personal capability (archery prowess) are both used in epic narrative to assess a person’s standing. Ethically, it suggests that excellence is recognized through both inherited responsibility and demonstrated skill.
Koṭika points out that just beyond their current position there is a formidable archer—identified as the outstanding son of the Kulinda ruler—thereby preparing the listener for an encounter or emphasizing the significance of this figure in the scene.
