Vibhīṣaṇa’s Arrival and the Debate on Refuge
इत्युक्त्वापरुषंवाक्यंरावणंरावणानुजः ।आजगाममुहूर्तेनयत्ररामस्सलक्ष्मणः ।।6.17.1।।
ity uktvā paruṣaṃ vākyaṃ rāvaṇaṃ rāvaṇānujaḥ | ājagāma muhūrtena yatra rāmaḥ salakṣmaṇaḥ ||
یوں راون سے سخت کلامی کر کے، اس کا چھوٹا بھائی (وبھیषण) تھوڑی ہی گھڑی میں وہاں پہنچ گیا جہاں شری رام لکشمن کے ساتھ کھڑے تھے۔
Vibheeshana, having addressed Ravana in harsh language, reached Rama and Lakshmana in a short while.
Dharma includes the duty to leave adharmic leadership when counsel fails; moving toward the righteous is portrayed as a legitimate moral choice.
Vibhīṣaṇa, after rebuking Rāvaṇa, goes swiftly to Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa.
Integrity—standing by truth and choosing the company of the virtuous.
