गङ्गादर्शनम् तथा गुहसमागमः (Vision of the Gaṅgā and Meeting with Guha)
तत्र राजा गुहो नाम रामस्यात्मसमस्सखा।निषादजात्यो बलवान् स्थपतिश्चेति विश्रुतः।।2.50.33।।
sa śrutvā puruṣavyāghraṃ rāmaṃ viṣayam āgatam | vṛddhaiḥ parivṛto ’mātyaiḥ jñātibhiś cābhyupāgataḥ || 2.50.34 ||
Hearing that Rāma—the tiger among men—had come into his territory, Guha, surrounded by elder counselors, ministers, and kinsmen, went forth to welcome him.
There lived the mighty king Guha who was born in the race of nishadas (hunters) and became famous as their lord. He was a friend to Rama who was like his own self.
Dharma as hospitality and honoring the virtuous: Guha fulfills a ruler’s duty by personally welcoming a righteous guest with proper attendants.
Guha learns of Rāma’s arrival and comes with his elders and ministers to greet him formally.
Respectful leadership: Guha shows humility, readiness to serve, and political propriety in receiving Rāma.
