sa taṃ samīkṣyānalaraśmidīptaṃ visiṣmiye vāsavadūtasūnuḥ | āvṛtya taṃ cauṣadhiparvatendraṃ tatrāuṣadhīnāṃ vicayaṃ cakāra || 6.74.62 ||
火のごとき光線に燃え輝くその山を見て、ヴァーサヴァの使者の子(ハヌマーン)は驚嘆した。薬草を宿す山々の主を巡り、そこにある薬草を調べ、見分けようとした。
Observing the herbs blazing like fire, he was astonished at the herbs on the mountain and went round thinking of the names of herbs (asked by Jambavan).
Dharma involves prajñā (discernment) in service: the goal is healing, but it must be pursued with careful identification and responsibility.
Hanumān reaches the blazing herb-mountain, circles it, and tries to identify the specific herbs needed.
Viveka (discriminating judgment) allied to devotion to duty—he does not act blindly even under time pressure.
