sarvāṇi cāṅgopāṅgāni sugrīvaṃ bhayam āviśat ||6.46.29||
Ao ver Sugrīva os corpos de Rāma e Lakṣmaṇa crivados de flechas, feridos em todos os membros, foi tomado pelo medo.
Neela, Dwivida, Mainda, Sushena, Kumuda, Angada accompanied by Hanuman grieved intensely on looking at the Raghavas.
The verse highlights a human (and Vānara) response—fear in crisis—setting the stage for dharmic counsel: fear must be mastered so that righteous duty can continue.
Sugrīva witnesses Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa grievously struck by arrows on the battlefield and is overwhelmed internally.
This verse foregrounds emotional vulnerability; the ensuing narrative emphasizes the needed virtue of steadiness (dhairya) to uphold dharma.
