Pṛthā’s Atithi-Sevā and the Gift of the Deva-Āhvāna Mantra (पृथायाः अतिथिसेवा तथा देवाह्वानमन्त्रप्रदानम्)
Devanagari script
अभिदुद्राव सुग्रीव: कुम्भकर्णमपेतभी: । अपने सैनिकों तथा वानरयूथपतियोंका वह उच्च स्वरसे किया जाता हुआ चीत्कार सुनकर सुग्रीव निर्भय हो कुम्भकर्णकी ओर दौड़े
Transliteration
abhidudrāva sugrīvaḥ kumbhakarṇam apetabhīḥ |
Translation
Mārkaṇḍeya said: Hearing the loud battle-cry raised by his own troops and the leaders of the monkey-bands, Sugrīva—free from fear—rushed straight toward Kumbhakarṇa. The scene underscores how courage, strengthened by the support and resolve of one’s companions, drives a leader to confront overwhelming force without wavering.
