prayāntaṃ tu mahā-ghoraṃ rākṣasaṃ bhīma-darśanam ||6.51.30||
antarikṣa-gatāḥ ghorāḥ śakunāḥ pratyaṣedhayan |
ເມື່ອຣາກສະຜູ້ນ່າສະພຶງກົວ ແລະນ່າຢ້ານເຫັນ ຂັບອອກໄປໃນລົດສຶກອັນຍອດ ທີ່ເທົ່າດ້ວຍລາ ແລະກ້ອງກັງວານດ້ວຍສຽງລາຮ້ອງ, ນົກດຸຮ້າຍໃນອາກາດກໍປາກົດເປັນລາງຮ້າຍ ດຸດກັບມາຂວາງທາງຂອງລາວ.
Heroic Rakshasa, Dhumraksha surrounded by rakshasas set forth laughing to the west gate where Hanuman stood.
The appearance of omens suggests moral consequence: adharma-driven aggression meets resistance even in signs of nature; dharma teaches attentiveness to warnings and self-correction rather than reckless persistence.
Dhumrākṣa advances in his donkey-yoked chariot, and ominous birds in the sky present a bad portent by obstructing his path.
The text foregrounds the universe’s moral signaling (nimitta); the implied virtue is prudent heedfulness—though the rākṣasa’s march is characterized by terror rather than wisdom.
