लक्ष्मण-प्राणरक्षा: (Lakshmana’s Revival by the Herb-Mountain)
अस्मिंस्तुशिखरेजातामोषधिंतांसुखावहाम् ।।।।प्रतर्केणावगच्छामिसुषेणोह्यवमब्रवीत् ।
tasya buddhiḥ samutpannā māruter amitojasaḥ |
idam eva gamiṣyāmi gṛhītvā śikharaṃ gireḥ ||
Then a keen resolve arose in Hanumān, the son of the Wind, of boundless energy: “I will go at once—taking the mountain’s peak itself.”
By reasoning it is known that the herb which is good for him is grown in this peak, for Sushena said so.
Dharma is expressed as decisive service: when the righteous goal is saving a life, one chooses the most effective action rather than hesitating over uncertainty.
Hanuman needs a life-saving herb but cannot identify it with certainty, so he resolves to bring the entire peak where the herbs grow.
Pragmatic wisdom joined with courage—Hanuman chooses a solution that guarantees success under time pressure.
