प्रहस्तवधः (The Slaying of Prahasta)
तेषामापततांशीघ्रंनिघ्नतांचापिवानरान् ।।।।द्विविदोगिरिशृङ्गेणजघानैकंनरान्तकम् ।
teṣām āpatatāṃ śīghraṃ nighnatāṃ cāpi vānarān | dvivido giriśṛṅgeṇa jaghānaikaṃ narāntakam ||
As those Rākṣasas charged swiftly and struck down the Vānaras, Dwivida, alone, felled Narāntaka with a mountain-peak.
Rushing at great speed, the Rakshasas and also killing the Vanaras in that way, Dwivida alone struck down Naranthaka with a mountain peak.
It portrays protective heroism: confronting a destructive aggressor to defend one’s allies aligns with dharma when done for a righteous cause.
During a fierce charge by Rākṣasas, the Vānara hero Dwivida counters decisively by killing Narāntaka with a mountain-peak.
Śaurya (courage) and initiative—swift action to neutralize a key threat.
