Vibhīṣaṇa’s Arrival and the Debate on Refuge
इत्युक्त्वापरुषंवाक्यंरावणंरावणानुजः ।आजगाममुहूर्तेनयत्ररामस्सलक्ष्मणः ।।6.17.1।।
ity uktvā paruṣaṃ vākyaṃ rāvaṇaṃ rāvaṇānujaḥ |
ājagāma muhūrtena yatra rāmaḥ sa-lakṣmaṇaḥ ||
ராவணனிடம் கடுமையாகப் பேசிய பின், விபீஷணன் விரைவாக ஸ்ரீராமரும் லக்ஷ்மணரும் இருந்த இடத்துக்குச் சென்றான்।
Vibheeshana, having addressed Ravana in harsh language, reached Rama and Lakshmana in a short while.
The movement from Rāvaṇa to Rāma expresses a dharmic reorientation: one must seek the side where truth and justice are upheld.
Vibhīṣaṇa arrives at Rāma’s location shortly after confronting Rāvaṇa.
Promptness in right action (kṣipratā in dharma-kārya).
