पृथिवीमण्डलपरिज्ञानम्
Sugriva on Surveying the Earth’s Regions
स मां जिघांसुर्दुष्टात्मा वाली प्रव्यथितेन्द्रियः।परिकालयते क्रोधाद्धावन्तं सचिवैस्सह।।।।
sa māṃ jighāṃsur duṣṭātmā vālī pravyathitendriyaḥ |
parikālayate krodhād dhāvantaṃ sacivaiḥ saha || 4.46.11 ||
ಆ ದುಷ್ಟಾತ್ಮ ವಾಲಿ, ಇಂದ್ರಿಯಗಳು ಅಶಾಂತಗೊಂಡವನು, ನನ್ನನ್ನು ಕೊಲ್ಲಲು ಬಯಸಿದನು; ಕ್ರೋಧದಿಂದ ಉರಿದು, ಸಚಿವರೊಂದಿಗೆ, ನಾನು ಓಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾಗ ನನ್ನ ಹಿಂದೆ ಧಾವಿಸಿದನು.
'The evil-minded Vali, having lost his self-control, ran after me in anger, to kill me and my ministers. I kept running.
Dharma requires mastery of anger and senses; when krodha governs, violence and injustice follow, as shown by Vālī’s murderous pursuit.
Sugrīva describes being chased by Vālī, who intends to kill him, explaining the background of his exile and fear.
The implied virtue is self-restraint; its absence in Vālī becomes the moral warning.
