Sāvitrī’s Report and Nārada’s Prognosis (सावित्र्याख्यान—सत्यवान्-गुणवर्णनं तथा अल्पायुषः पूर्वसूचना)
स चारित्रं विशोध्याथ सर्वप्रकृतिसंनिधौ । अन्वयाद् भ्रातरं रामं विनिवर्तनलालस:,उन्होंने सारी प्रजा और मन्त्रियों आदिके निकट अपनी सफाई दी तथा भाई श्रीरामको वनसे लौटा लानेकी लालसासे उन्हींके पथका अनुसरण किया
sa cāritraṁ viśodhyātha sarva-prakṛti-saṁnidhau | anvayād bhrātaraṁ rāmaṁ vinivartana-lālasaḥ ||
তেওঁ সকলো প্ৰজা আৰু প্ৰধানজনৰ সন্মুখত নিজৰ আচৰণ নিৰ্দোষ বুলি প্ৰমাণ কৰি, ভ্ৰাতা ৰামক বনৰ পৰা উভতাই আনিবলৈ তীব্ৰ আকাঙ্ক্ষাৰে ৰামে লোৱা সেই একে পথ অনুসৰণ কৰিলে।
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
Before pursuing a major course of action, one should first establish moral clarity and public trust—vindicating one’s conduct before the community—so that subsequent deeds are grounded in dharma rather than suspicion or private impulse.
After publicly clearing his reputation in front of the subjects and leading persons, the speaker describes how he set out along the same route as his brother Rāma, motivated by the desire to bring him back from exile in the forest.
