सेन्द्रानपि सुरान्सर्वांस्त्वं बाणैः पुरुषर्षभ।समर्थस्समरे हन्तुं किं पुन र्वालिनं प्रभो 4.12.8।।
sendrān api surān sarvāṁs tvaṁ bāṇaiḥ puruṣarṣabha | samarthaḥ samare hantuṁ kiṁ punaḥ vālinam prabho || 4.12.8 ||
O best of men, O lord—on the battlefield you are able to strike down even the gods, Indra included, with your arrows; how much more, then, Vāli?
'O bull among men, O lord, you are capable of killing with your arrows even the gods including Indra in the battle, what to speak of Vali.
Dharma here is the assurance that righteous purpose should be pursued without fear when supported by legitimate strength and right alliance; Sugrīva encourages Rāma to act decisively against adharma (Vāli’s wrongdoing) once the cause is just.
Sugrīva is bolstering Rāma’s confidence before the confrontation involving Vāli, emphasizing Rāma’s extraordinary martial capability.
Rāma’s vīrya (heroic power) and Sugrīva’s viśvāsa (trust) in righteous support and protection.
