हनूमद्विक्रम-प्रशंसा तथा महेन्द्रारोहणम् (Hanuman’s Self-Assertion of Power and Ascent of Mount Mahendra)

Seeing Hanumān—the best of the monkeys—suddenly expand himself and fill with strength to cross a hundred yojanas, they at once cast off their grief. Filled with joy, they cried aloud and praised mighty Hanumān.
'O bull among monkeys when the Sun rises from behind the eastern mountain it is possible for me to start with him and go to the western horizon and return before the blazing Sun with its beams of light sets. It is also possible for me to descend to the earth with the same speed and return to the Sun without touching the earth.
Dharma here is steadfast commitment to a righteous mission: when a capable agent rises to the task, the community should abandon despair and support the undertaking through encouragement and praise.
On the seashore before the leap to Laṅkā, the vanaras witness Hanumān enlarging himself and manifesting the power needed to cross the vast distance; their morale immediately revives.
Hanumān’s vīrya (heroic strength) and the vanaras’ renewed śraddhā (confidence/faith) expressed through collective acclaim.
