Vibhīṣaṇa’s Arrival and the Debate on Refuge
इत्युक्त्वापरुषंवाक्यंरावणंरावणानुजः ।आजगाममुहूर्तेनयत्ररामस्सलक्ष्मणः ।।6.17.1।।
ity uktvā paruṣaṃ vākyaṃ rāvaṇaṃ rāvaṇānujaḥ | ājagāma muhūrtena yatra rāmaḥ salakṣmaṇaḥ ||
Tendo dirigido a Rāvaṇa palavras severas, Vibhīṣaṇa —o irmão mais novo de Rāvaṇa— chegou em breve ao lugar onde Rāma estava com Lakṣmaṇa.
Vibheeshana, having addressed Ravana in harsh language, reached Rama and Lakshmana in a short while.
Dharma is choosing righteous alignment over inherited allegiance; truthful counsel may be harsh, but it is ethically necessary when confronting adharma.
Vibhīṣaṇa departs from Rāvaṇa and joins Rāma’s vicinity.
Truthfulness joined with decisive action.
