सीताहनूमद्भाषणम्
Sita Tests the Messenger; Hanuman Offers Reassurance
अहं रामस्य सन्देशाद्देवि दूतस्तवागतः।वैदेहि कुशली रामस्त्वां च कौशलमब्रवीत्।।।।
ahaṃ rāmasya sandeśād devi dūtas tavāgataḥ | vaidehi kuśalī rāmas tvāṃ ca kauśalam abravīt ||
اے دیوی! اے ویدیہی! میں رام کے پیغام کے ساتھ، اس کے حکم سے تمہارا دوت بن کر آیا ہوں۔ رام خیریت سے ہیں اور انہوں نے تمہاری خیر و عافیت کی دعا و خبر بھی کہی ہے۔
"By the command of Rama I am here as a messenger. He is keeping well. He is well and wishes you well.
Dharma is faithful service and truthful speech: Hanumān identifies himself plainly as dūta (envoy) and conveys Rāma’s well-being and concern without deception.
After approaching Sītā in Aśoka-vana, Hanumān formally declares his mission: he is sent by Rāma and brings reassurance of Rāma’s safety and care.
Hanumān’s loyalty and reliability as a messenger—precision, honesty, and compassion in delivering a message meant to revive hope.
