चित्रकूटमार्गवर्णनम् · Bharata’s Army Reaches Chitrakuta and Searches for Rama
स्यन्दनांस्तुरगोपेतान्सूतमुख्यै रधिष्ठितान् ।
एतान्सम्पततश्श्रीघ्रं पश्य शत्रुघ्न कानने ॥१६॥
syandanāṃs turagopetān sūtamukhyair adhiṣṭhitān |
etān sampatataḥ śīghraṃ paśya śatrughna kānane ||16||
देखो शत्रुघ्न, घोड़ों वाली ये रथें जंगल में ऐसे उड़ रही हैं। सूता लोग जो चला रहे हैं, वो एक्सपर्ट हैं। देखो कितनी तेज़ी से जा रहे हैं।
Behold, O Satrughna, these chariots, commanded by excellent charioteers, harnessed with horses are flying through the forest.
Dharma appears as disciplined, organized action in pursuit of a righteous end—mobilizing resources and moving swiftly to restore what is right (Rama’s rightful situation).
Bharata points out to Śatrughna the speed and orderliness of the chariot-force moving through the forest during the search.
Leadership and purposeful urgency—Bharata’s ability to direct a mission without losing sight of its moral aim.
