तारोपदेशः — Tara’s Counsel to Vali on Sugriva’s Roar and Rama’s Alliance
साधु क्रोधमिमं वीर नदीवेगमिवागतम्।शयनादुत्थितः काल्यं त्यज भुक्तामिव स्रजम्।।
sādhu krodham imaṃ vīra nadī-vegam ivāgatam | śayanād utthitaḥ kālyaṃ tyaja bhuktām iva srajam ||
“O hero, this surge of anger has come upon you like a river in flood. Though it is natural to feel it upon rising now, cast it off—like the wise discard a garland already used.”
'O valiant Vali! anger has overtaken you like the flood of a river. It is natural for you to be angry at this time, but shake off your anger just as the wise discard a flower garland already used up.
Self-mastery is Dharma: anger is compared to a flood—powerful but dangerous—so a righteous person must let it pass and act with discernment.
Tārā counsels Vāli to calm himself before confronting Sugrīva.
Tārā’s wisdom (prajñā): she urges emotional discipline and timely restraint.
