विभीषणाभिषेकः
The Consecration of Vibhishana and Counsel on Crossing the Ocean
अनुजोरावणस्याहंतेनचाप्यवमानितः ।भवन्तंसर्वभूतानांशरण्यंशरणागतः ।।6.19.4।।
anujo rāvaṇasyāhaṃ tena cāpy avamānitaḥ | bhavantaṃ sarvabhūtānāṃ śaraṇyaṃ śaraṇāgataḥ ||6.19.4||
Aku adik kepada Rāvaṇa, dan aku juga telah dihina olehnya. Maka aku datang berlindung kepada tuanku—pelindung bagi segala makhluk—sebagai orang yang memohon suaka.
"I am Ravana's younger brother. Having been put to shame I came to seek protection from you who are the protector of all beings " (Vibheeshana said to Rama)."
The dharma of śaraṇāgati: admitting one’s situation truthfully and seeking rightful protection from a just protector; it also implies the king’s dharma to protect those who surrender.
Vibhīṣaṇa introduces himself to Rāma and formally seeks asylum after being humiliated by Rāvaṇa.
Vibhīṣaṇa’s integrity and courage in choosing dharma over familial allegiance to adharma.
