सीताहरणोत्तरं लङ्काप्रवेशः — Sita’s Abduction and Ravana’s Entry into Lanka
स तान्दृष्ट्वा महावीर्यो वरदानेन मोहितः।उवाचैतानिदं वाक्यं प्रशस्य बलवीर्यतः।।।।
sa tāndṛṣṭvā mahāvīryo varadānēna mōhitaḥ | uvācaitānidaṃ vākyaṃ praśasya balavīryataḥ ||
Seeing them, that mighty Ravana, deluded by the boons he had received, praised their strength and valor and spoke these words to them.
The mighty Ravana, deluded by the boons, praised the strength and valour of the demons and said :
Ravana is described as 'deluded by boons' because the invincibility granted to him by Lord Brahma fed his ego, blinding him to the moral consequences (Adharma) of his actions.
Having abducted Sita and arrived in Lanka, Ravana praises his Rakshasa guards to ensure their loyalty and vigilance, relying on military might rather than righteousness.
