सुग्रीवस्य वैरानुकथनम्
Sugriva’s Account of Enmity and Appeal to Rama
ततः क्रोधसमाविष्टं सम्रब्धं तमुपागतम्।अहं प्रसादयाञ्चक्रे भ्रातरं प्रियकाम्यया
tataḥ krodhasamāviṣṭaṃ samrabdhaṃ tam upāgatam | ahaṃ prasādayāñ cakre bhrātaraṃ priyakāmyayā ||
Bấy giờ, khi anh ta đến gần, lòng đầy phẫn nộ, khí thế bừng bừng; vì mong điều thân yêu và lợi ích cho chúng ta, ta đã cố gắng làm nguôi giận người anh em ấy.
'I sought to appease my brother who arrived in an agitated state overpowered with anger.
Dharma here is fraternal responsibility and restraint: one should attempt reconciliation and calming speech before escalation.
Sugrīva explains to Rāma how he responded when Vālin returned in anger—by trying to appease him.
Conciliation (prasāda) and self-control in the face of another’s rage.
