Indrajit’s Deployment—Brahmāstra Binding, Hanuman’s Capture, Entry into Ravana’s Court
राक्षसाधिपतिं चापि ददर्श कपिसत्तमः।तेजोबलसमायुक्तं तपन्तमिव भास्करम्।।।।
rākṣasādhipatiṃ cāpi dadarśa kapisattamaḥ | tejobala-samāyuktaṃ tapantam iva bhāskaram ||
कपिश्रेष्ठ हनुमानाने राक्षसाधिपतीलाही पाहिले—तेज व बलाने युक्त, सूर्याप्रमाणे दाहक व दीप्तिमान।
Hanuman the best of monkeys also saw the demon king who had both splendour and strength, radiating brilliance like the Sun.
Dharma includes truthful perception: Hanumān acknowledges the opponent’s power without fear or flattery, preparing to speak his message with integrity (satya).
In the royal court, Hanumān comes face-to-face with Rāvaṇa and assesses him directly.
Courage with discernment—Hanumān recognizes real strength yet remains unwavering in duty.
