प्रदानम् — The Signet Jewel as Proof and the Consolation of Sita
तदस्मिन्कार्यनिर्योगे वीरैवं दुरतिक्रमे।किं पश्यसि समाधानं त्वं हि कार्यविदां वरः।।।।
tad asmin kāryaniryoge vīra evaṃ duratikrame | kiṃ paśyasi samādhānaṃ tvaṃ hi kāryavidāṃ varaḥ ||
અતએવ, હે વીર! આ અતિ દુર્લંઘ્ય કાર્યમાં તું કયો ઉપાય દેખે છે? કારણ કે કાર્યસાધનમાં તું જ જાણકારોમાં શ્રેષ્ઠ છે.
"What means do you, being the foremost hero among the three who are capable performing this difficult task, foresee?
Dharma values wise counsel and competent agency: Sītā seeks a truthful, workable plan from the most capable messenger rather than clinging to mere sentiment.
Facing the obstacle of the ocean and the urgency of rescue, Sītā asks Hanumān to propose a practical resolution.
Hanumān’s reputation for effective action (kārya-kauśala) is highlighted—competence as a form of service to dharma.
