युद्धकाण्डे एकोनषष्टितमः सर्गः
Rāvaṇa’s Assault on Nīla and Lakṣmaṇa; Hanumān Bears Rāma
देवदानववीराणांवपुर्नैवंविधंभवेत् ।यादृशंराक्षसेन्द्रस्यवपुरेतत्प्रकाशते ।।6.59.28।।
deva-dānava-vīrāṇāṃ vapur naivaṃ-vidhaṃ bhavet |
yādṛśaṃ rākṣasendrasya vapur etat prakāśate ||6.59.28||
دیوتاؤں اور دانَووں کے سورماؤں میں بھی ایسا بدن نہیں ہوتا جیسا یہ راکشس راج کا دہکتا ہوا پیکر یہاں روشن ہو رہا ہے۔
Among the Devas and Danavas such brilliance is not there. He shines so brightly.
The verse reinforces that extraordinary power can exist even in adharma-aligned figures; dharma is measured by conduct and truth (satya), not by brilliance or dominance.
Rāma remarks that even divine and demonic champions do not display such a formidable appearance as Rāvaṇa does now.
Rāma’s realism and restraint: he acknowledges the enemy’s exceptional might while remaining anchored in righteous duty.
