He who stands on the ocean’s shore, enhancing the splendour of that fearsome, surging host—like a second sea risen beside the sea itself—
"He who is stationed there on the shore like a second sea fluttering the division of army and terrifying is known as Vinata. He is a leader who goes about drinking the waters of the Parnasa, the best among the rivers. He has a sixty hundred thousand army force of Vanaras under him."
Dharma here is implied through disciplined strength: the host is fearsome, yet ordered and purposeful—power aligned to a righteous campaign rather than chaos.
From a high vantage in Laṅkā, Rāvaṇa is being shown the vast Vanara forces; the spy identifies and characterizes leaders and formations.
Steadfast leadership—standing firm at the frontier (the shore), inspiring and beautifying the army by presence and order.
