गङ्गातरणम् — Bharata’s Ferrying of the Army across the Ganga
सा पुण्या ध्वजिनी गङ्गां दाशैस्सन्तारिता स्वयम्।मैत्रे मुहूर्ते प्रययौ प्रयागवनमुत्तमम्।।।।
iti saṃvadator evam anyonyaṃ narasiṃhayoḥ | āgamya prāñjaliḥ kāle guho bharatam abravīt ||
As those two lion-like men conversed with each other, Guha arrived at the proper moment and, with folded hands, addressed Bharata.
The auspicious army, ferried across the river Ganga by the fishermen, reached the great forest of Prayaga at the auspicious hour of Maitra.
Dharma is shown through maryādā (propriety): Guha approaches at an appropriate time and with respectful gestures, modeling righteous social conduct.
Bharata and Śatrughna are speaking when Guha arrives to communicate with Bharata, setting up the arrangements connected to their onward journey.
Guha’s humility and reverence—his folded hands indicate disciplined respect toward a royal guest.
