Shloka 16
Hanūmān’s Embrace, Counsel, and Promise to Amplify Bhīma’s Battle-Roar
Gandhamādana Continuation
न विग्रह: कुतस्तन्द्री न द्वेघो न च पैशुनम् न भयं नापि संतापो न चेष्या न च मत्सर:,कहीं लड़ाई-झगड़ा नहीं था, आलसी भी नहीं थे। द्वेष, चुगली, भय, संताप, ईर्ष्या और मात्सर्य भी नहीं था-
na vigrahaḥ kutas tandrī na dvegho na ca paiśunam | na bhayaṃ nāpi santāpo na ceṣyā na ca matsaraḥ ||
Bhīma nói: “Không hề có cãi vã hay xung đột; vậy thì làm sao có thể có lười biếng? Không có ác ý, không có lời gièm pha—không sợ hãi, không dày vò nội tâm, không ghen tị, không đố kỵ.”
भीम उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights an ethical ideal of communal life: where conflict is absent, destructive emotions and behaviors—hatred, slander, fear, distress, jealousy, and envy—also do not arise. It points to inner discipline and social harmony as mutually reinforcing.
Bhīma is describing a condition or place characterized by moral and emotional well-being—emphasizing that there was no strife and therefore none of the accompanying vices such as sloth, malice, backbiting, fear, anguish, jealousy, or envy.
