सेनानिवेशः रामविलापश्च
Encampment on the Northern Shore; Rama’s Lament and Sandhyā
सातुनीलेनविधिवत्स्वारक्षासुसमाहिता ।सागरस्योत्तरेतीरेसाधुसेनानिवेशिता ।।6.5.1।।
sā tu nīlena vidhivat svārakṣāsu samāhitā | sāgarasyottare tīre sādhu senā niveśitā ||
Dengan tata cara yang patut, Nīla menghimpun pasukan beserta pengawal-pengawal mereka, lalu menempatkannya dengan elok di tepi utara samudra.
Nila settled the army successfully by making them reside on the northern shore of the sea, as per tradition.
Dharma here is orderly conduct: leadership that follows proper procedure (vidhivat), ensures protection, and prioritizes collective safety through discipline and preparedness.
The forces allied to Rāma are being organized and encamped at the seashore; Nīla arranges the camp and security on the ocean’s northern bank.
Nīla’s competence and responsibility—methodical organization, attention to security, and effective execution.
