Lakshmana’s Vigil and Guha’s Testimony
नहि रामात्प्रियतरो ममास्ति भुवि कश्चन।मोत्सुकोऽभूर्ब्रवीम्येतदप्यसत्यं तवाग्रतः।।।।
nahi rāmāt priyataro mamāsti bhuvi kaścana | mā utsuko 'bhūr bravīmy etad api satyaṃ tavāgrataḥ ||
ليس على وجه الأرض أحدٌ أحبَّ إليّ من راما. فلا تقلق؛ إنما أنطق بهذه الحقيقة في حضرتك أنت.
To me, there is none on earth dearer than Rama. Do not have any anxiety. I am telling you the truth.
Truthfulness (satya) joined with compassionate reassurance—Guha pledges sincerity and calms Bharata’s fear without deception.
Bharata is anxious about Rāma’s safety; Guha responds by affirming his affection for Rāma and speaking truthfully to reassure him.
Guha’s loyalty and integrity: steadfast friendship toward Rāma and commitment to speak the truth openly.
