पुत्रजन्मोत्सवः — Birth of the Princes and Viśvāmitra’s Arrival
Bālakāṇḍa 18
गतेषु पृथिवीशेषु राजा दशरथस्तदा।प्रविवेश पुरीं श्रीमान् पुरस्कृत्य द्विजोत्तमान्।।।।
gateṣu pṛthivīśeṣu rājā daśarathas tadā | praviveśa purīṃ śrīmān puraskṛtya dvijottamān ||
Khi các vua chư hầu đã lần lượt cáo biệt, bấy giờ vua Daśaratha rạng rỡ vinh quang tiến vào kinh thành, cung kính tôn rước các bậc tối thượng Bà-la-môn đi trước để làm vẻ vang.
After the departure of the rulers, the exalted king Dasaratha preceded by the foremost of brahmins entered the city (of Ayodhya).
Rajadharma includes honoring spiritual and scholarly authority; Daśaratha’s public precedence to eminent brāhmaṇas models reverence for dharma-guiding counsel.
After an assembly of rulers concludes and the visiting kings depart, Daśaratha returns into the capital, accompanied and ceremonially preceded by leading brāhmaṇas.
Humility and dharmic kingship—Daśaratha’s respect for learned brāhmaṇas and adherence to proper royal conduct.
