समुद्रलङ्घनारम्भः
Commencement of the Ocean-Crossing
तिर्यगूर्ध्वमधश्चैव शक्तिस्ते शैल वर्धितुम्।।।।तस्मात्संचोदयामि त्वामुत्तिष्ठ गिरिसत्तम।
tiryag ūrdhvam adhaś caiva śaktis te śaila vardhitum | tasmāt saṃcodayāmi tvām uttiṣṭha girisattama ||
اے پہاڑ! تجھ میں یہ قدرت ہے کہ تو ترچھا بھی، اوپر بھی اور نیچے بھی پھیل سکے؛ اس لیے میں تجھے ابھارتا ہوں—اٹھ کھڑا ہو، اے پہاڑوں کے سردار!
"O noble mountain! you have the capacity to grow across, upward and downward by your free will. I therefore prompt you to grow.
Timely aid: when one has capacity, dharma calls for activating it to support a righteous mission.
Samudra instructs Maināka to emerge from the ocean using his innate power of expansion.
Readiness to serve: power is framed as responsibility, not mere possession.
