vikṛtā vikṛtākārāḥ krūrāḥ krūrakacekṣaṇāḥ ||6.116.33||
Chúng thật gớm ghiếc—dị dạng và quái đản—tàn nhẫn, với mái tóc đáng sợ và đôi mắt hung dữ.
"I wish to kill by all kinds of strokes, these cruel distorted forms of Rakshasas having terrible hair and fierce eyes and not to mention their violence. Permit me."
The verse sets up a moral tension: even when facing cruelty, righteous action must be guided by restraint and proper authority, not by anger alone.
Hanuman describes the frightening rākṣasīs who tormented Sita, as he prepares to ask permission to punish them.
Hanuman’s protective loyalty—his intense desire to defend Sita and remove her suffering.
