सुपर्णागमनम् (Garuda’s Arrival and the Release from the Serpent-Arrow Bond)
विभीषणोऽयंसम्प्राप्तोयंदृष्टवावानरर्षभाः ।विद्रवन्तिपरितत्रसरावणात्मजशङ्कया ।।6.50.9।।
vibhīṣaṇo 'yaṃ samprāpto yaṃ dṛṣṭvā vānararṣabhāḥ | vidravanti paritrastā rāvaṇātmaja-śaṅkayā ||6.50.9||
“This is Vibhīṣaṇa, who has arrived. On seeing him, the foremost Vānaras flee in alarm, suspecting him to be Rāvaṇa’s son.”
"Vibheeshana has come here. Beholding him the foremost of the Vanaras fleeing suspecting him to be the son of Ravana."
Dharma requires satya-based judgment: fear and rumor can distort perception, so one must verify identity and intent before condemning or rejecting.
Some Vānaras panic at Vibhīṣaṇa’s arrival, misunderstanding who he is; Sugrīva notes their suspicion.
Composure and clarity in leadership—naming the fear honestly so it can be addressed through reason and truth.
