समुद्रलङ्घनारम्भः
Commencement of the Ocean-Crossing
गिरिणा पीड्यमानेन पीड्यमानानि सर्वतः।गुहाविष्टानि भूतानि विनेदुर्विकृतैः स्वरैः।।।।
giriṇā pīḍyamānena pīḍyamānāni sarvataḥ | guhāviṣṭāni bhūtāni vinedur vikṛtaiḥ svaraiḥ ||
Bị ngọn núi đè ép, nghiền nát tứ phía, muôn loài trú trong các hang động đều rú lên những tiếng kêu méo mó, rợn người.
Squeezed on all sides of the mountain by Hanuman, all creatures living in the caves shrieked making horrible sounds .
Dharma includes awareness of collateral harm: immense power can cause suffering to the innocent, reminding the righteous to act with restraint and attentiveness.
During Hanumān’s powerful movement involving a mountain, the cave-dwelling beings are crushed and cry out in distress.
Implied restraint as an ideal: the verse highlights the effects of force, encouraging careful, dharmic use of strength.
