Hanuman’s rout of the Rakshasa host
अकम्पनस्तुशैलाभंहनूमन्तमवस्थितम् ।महेन्द्रइवदाराभिश्शरैरभिववर्षह ।।6.56.11।।
akampanas tu śailābhaṁ hanūmantaṁ avasthitam | mahendra iva dhārābhiḥ śarair abhivavarṣa ha ||
Mas Akampana, contra Hanumān, firme como uma montanha, fez chover flechas em torrentes, como Mahendra (Indra) derrama as correntes da chuva.
On Akampana, who was well established like a mountain, mighty Hanuman showered torrents of arrows like Indra showered rain.
Those who stand for Dharma are tested by overwhelming force; steadfastness under attack is a hallmark of righteous resolve.
Akampana launches a heavy arrow-barrage at Hanumān, who remains immovable like a mountain.
Hanumān’s endurance and stability in service of Satya (Rāma’s cause).
