dūto ’haṁ kośalendrasya rāmasyākliṣṭa-karmaṇaḥ | vāli-putro ’ṅgado nāma yadite śrotram āgataḥ ||6.41.78||
میں کوسل کے راجا، رام—جو عمل میں کبھی نہ تھکتے—کا دوت ہوں؛ میں والی کا پتر، انگد نام ہوں، جیسا کہ شاید تم نے سنا ہو۔
"I am the son of Vali,by name Angada,an envoy of Rama ,the king of Kosala of unwearied action. You may know that I have landed"
Dharma in diplomacy begins with transparent identity and authority. Angada states who he is and whom he represents, grounding speech in truth.
Angada introduces himself to Ravana as Rama’s official messenger.
Straightforwardness and confidence—speaking clearly in an enemy’s assembly.
