कुम्भकर्णविबोधनम्
The Awakening of Kumbhakarna
एवंब्रुवाणंसम्रब्धंकुम्भकर्णमरिन्दमम् ।यूपाक्षःसचिवोराज्ञःकृताञ्जलिरभाषत ।।।।
evaṃ bruvāṇaṃ samrabdhaṃ kumbhakarṇam arindamam | yūpākṣaḥ sacivo rājñaḥ kṛtāñjalir abhāṣata ||
Cuando Kumbhakarṇa, domador de enemigos, habló así con ira, Yūpākṣa, ministro del rey, con las palmas juntas en reverencia, le respondió.
Kumbhakarna, tamer of enemies having spoken in that way in anger, Yupaksha, a minister joined palms and replied to him.
Proper counsel is delivered with respect (kṛtāñjali) even in tense moments—ethical speech balances truth with decorum.
A minister, Yūpākṣa, prepares to inform Kumbhakarṇa of the situation, approaching respectfully despite Kumbhakarṇa’s anger.
Ministerial propriety: humility and respectful address while conveying urgent information.
