सावित्री-यमसंवादः
Sāvitrī’s Dialogue with Yama and the Restoration of Satyavān
यावदशभ्यागता रौद्रा: पिशाच्यस्ता: सुदारुणा: । ददृशुस्तां त्रिजटया सहासीनां यथा पुरा,इतनेमें ही अत्यन्त क्रूर स््वभाववाली वे भयंकर पिशाचिनियाँ रावणके दरबारसे वहाँ लौटकर आयीं। आकर उन्होंने देखा, सीता त्रिजटाके साथ पूर्ववत् अपने स्थानपर बैठी है
yāvad aśabhyāgatā raudrāḥ piśācyas tāḥ sudāruṇāḥ | dadṛśus tāṃ trijaṭayā sahāsīnāṃ yathā purā ||
Noon din, ang mga nakapanghihilakbot at ubod ng lupit na mga babaeng rākṣasī ay nagbalik mula sa bulwagan ni Rāvaṇa. Pagdating nila, nakita nila si Sītā na nakaupo sa dati niyang kinalalagyan, gaya ng una, at katabi niya si Trijaṭā—matatag at di matinag sa kabila ng pananakot, sapagkat inaaruga ng pag-iingat ng isang kaibigang may habag.
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
Educational Q&A
Even amid coercion and hostile surroundings, steadfastness in dharma is sustained by inner resolve and the presence of at least one compassionate ally (here, Trijaṭā), showing how moral support can protect integrity against intimidation.
The fierce piśācinī attendants return from Rāvaṇa’s court and find Sītā sitting as before with Trijaṭā, indicating that their threats or reports have not altered Sītā’s composed stance and that Trijaṭā remains by her side.
