Karṇa–Sūrya Saṃvāda: Satya, Dāna, and the Amoghā Śakti (कर्ण–सूर्यसंवादः)
अड्ढदस्त्वथ लड्काया द्वारदेशमुपागतः । विदितो राक्षसेन्द्रस्य प्रविवेश गतव्यथ:,(श्रीरामचन्द्रजीकी आज्ञासे) महाबली अंगद दूत बनकर लंकापुरीके द्वारपर आये। राक्षतराज रावणको उनके आगमनकी सूचना दी गयी। फिर अनुमति मिलनेपर उन्होंने निर्भय होकर पुरीमें प्रवेश किया। अनेक करोड़ राक्षसोंके बीचमें जाते हुए अंगद मेघोंकी घटासे घिरे हुए सूर्यदेवके समान सुशोभित हो रहे थे
aḍḍhadastv atha laṅkāyā dvāradeśam upāgataḥ | vidito rākṣasendrasya praviveśa gatavyathaḥ ||
Mārkaṇḍeya said: Then the mighty Aṅgada, acting as an envoy by Śrī Rāmacandra’s command, arrived at the gateway of Laṅkā. His coming was reported to the lord of the Rākṣasas (Rāvaṇa). After permission was granted, he entered the city without fear. Moving amid countless Rākṣasas, Aṅgada shone like the sun surrounded by masses of clouds—radiant, steady, and undaunted in the performance of his duty.
