अयोध्याप्रत्यागमन-सन्देशः (Hanuman Sent Ahead to Ayodhya)
ज्ञेयाःसर्वे च वृत्तान्ताःभरतस्येङ्गितानि च ।तत्त्वेनमुखवर्णेनदृष्ट्याव्याभाषितेन च ।।।।
jñeyāḥ sarve ca vṛttāntā bharatasyengitāni ca | tattvena mukhavarṇena dṛṣṭyā vyābhāṣitena ca ||
“All particulars—and Bharata’s true intentions—are to be discerned from his face’s color, his gaze, and the manner of his speech.”
" All the information, everything to be known by his facial colour, expression, by his speech, his intention to be ascertained truly."
Satya (truth) is pursued through careful observation, not suspicion: dharmic decision-making requires attentive reading of conduct and speech to prevent injustice in governance.
Rāma equips Hanumān with practical cues to judge Bharata’s inner disposition upon receiving news of Rāma’s return.
Wisdom in delegation: Rāma entrusts Hanumān with sensitive assessment using non-violent, observant means.
