अनेकवर्षसाहस्रो वृद्धस्त्वमसि पार्थिव।स रामं युवराजानमभिषिञ्चिस्व पार्थिवम्।।2.2.21।।
aneka-varṣa-sāhasro vṛddhas tvam asi pārthiva |
sa rāmaṃ yuvarājānam abhiṣiñcisva pārthivam || 2.2.21 ||
اے پارتھِو! تو بے شمار برسوں کے گزرنے سے بوڑھا ہو چکا ہے؛ اس لیے رام کو یووراج کے طور پر—زمین کے آئندہ حکمران کے طور پر—ابھِشیک دے کر مقرر فرما۔
O mighty king!, you have grown many thousands of years old. Therefore, you should coronate Rama as prince regent of this kingdom.
Dharma is orderly succession for the stability of the realm: when a ruler is advanced in age, installing a qualified heir is presented as a righteous, welfare-oriented act.
The assembly directly urges Daśaratha to perform Rāma’s consecration as yuvarāja.
Rāma’s implied worthiness (fitness to rule) and the kingdom’s concern for continuity of righteous governance.
