O König, es gibt einen erhabenen Berg, wo die Bäume zu jeder Zeit Früchte tragen und von Bienen umschwärmt sind; die Sonne scheint ihn zu umkreisen, denn sein Laub glänzt wie Sonnenlicht. Durch seinen Glanz leuchten Hirsche, Vögel und andere Wesen stets in eben jener Farbe. Sein weites Hochplateau verlassen die großen ṛṣis, die hochgesinnten, nicht. Auf diesem besten der Berge stehen immerfruchtende Bäume, stets reich an reifen Früchten, und auch kostbarer Honig findet sich dort. Dort, auf jenem lieblichen goldenen Berg, weilt Kesari, der Truppenführer, der Erste unter den Häuptlingen der Vānaras.
"O king! Where the trees give fruit in all seasons which is inhabited by honeybees, whose leaves shine similar to that of Sunshine, where birds animals and all ever shining in golden colour of the Sun, where sages and great souls reside without leaving; where trees always yield tasty fruits and have valuable honey; in such a delightful golden mountain Vanara leader named Kesari, the chief of all chief Vanaras revels."
FAQs
By portraying a sacred, life-sustaining mountain where sages reside and nature is abundant, the verse frames the world as ordered and nurtured by Dharma—places aligned with righteousness become fit abodes for the virtuous and support spiritual practice.
Satya appears as truthful narration of qualities—unexaggerated markers of sanctity (sages staying, constant fruit, precious honey) that establish reliable knowledge about the place and about Kesari’s stature, grounding the lineage and setting in credible description.
