Kuntī–Sūrya-saṃvāda: Autonomy, Reputation, and the Promise of Karṇa
तमापततन्तं संक्रुद्धं पुनरेव युयुत्सया । अभिदुद्राव सौमित्रिर्विभीषणमते स्थित:,उसे क्रोधमें भरकर पुनः युद्धकी इच्छासे आते देख विभीषणकी सम्मतिसे लक्ष्मणने उसपर धावा किया
tam āpatatantaṃ saṃkruddhaṃ punar eva yuyutsayā | abhidudrāva saumitrir vibhīṣaṇamate sthitaḥ ||
Маркандейя сказал: Увидев, как он снова несётся вперёд, пылая гневом и жаждая нового боя, Саумитри (Лакшмана) — действуя согласно совету Вибхишаны — бросился прямо на него.

Educational Q&A
Even in battle, action should be guided by discernment and sound counsel (here, Vibhīṣaṇa’s advice), not merely by anger; righteous duty includes confronting aggression while maintaining strategic and ethical restraint.
An enraged opponent rushes in again seeking combat; Lakṣmaṇa (Saumitri), aligned with Vibhīṣaṇa’s counsel, responds decisively by charging to meet the renewed attack.
