अयोध्याकाण्डे चतुर्थः सर्गः
Rāma Summoned; Pushya Coronation Decision
प्रणमन्तं समुत्थाप्य तं परिष्वज्य भूमिपः।प्रदिश्य चास्मै रुचिरमासनं पुनरब्रवीत्।।2.4.11।।
praṇamantaṃ samutthāpya taṃ pariṣvajya bhūmipaḥ | pradiśya cāsmai ruciram āsanaṃ punar abravīt || 2.4.11 ||
ପ୍ରଣାମ କରୁଥିବା ତାଙ୍କୁ ଦେଖି ଭୂପତି ରାଜା ତାଙ୍କୁ ଉଠାଇ, ଆଲିଙ୍ଗନ କଲେ; ଏବଂ ରୁଚିର ଆସନ ଦେଇ ପୁନର୍ବାର କହିଲେ।
As he (Rama) was bending (with reverence), Dasaratha lifted him up and embraced him. Thereafter, he offered him a splendid seat and said again:
It shows dharma through reciprocal respect: the son honors the father, and the father responds with protection, affection, and proper hospitality.
Daśaratha welcomes Rāma formally and affectionately before beginning an important conversation.
Parental compassion and dignity—Daśaratha’s warm, orderly reception of his son.
