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 ||
یوں راون سے وہ سخت و درشت کلام کہہ کر، راون کا چھوٹا بھائی (ویبھیشَن) فوراً اسی جگہ چلا گیا جہاں شری رام لکشمن کے ساتھ موجود تھے۔
Vibheeshana, having addressed Ravana in harsh language, reached Rama and Lakshmana in a short while.
Dharma is upheld through right association (sat-saṅga): moving toward those committed to justice and truth.
Vibhīṣaṇa arrives swiftly where Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa are stationed.
Humility joined with truthfulness: the willingness to seek the rightful side rather than cling to power.
