Hắn nhìn thấy hai bậc anh hùng đại lực—Rāma và Lakṣmaṇa—đứng giữa đoàn quân Vānara, tựa như đôi đại xà uy mãnh, phóng ra lưới tên dày đặc.
That great hero saw Rama and Lakshmana like three serpents in the midst of Vanaras raining network of arrows.
The verse highlights kṣatra-dharma: steadfast courage and disciplined engagement in battle for a righteous cause, without abandoning one’s duty even amid overwhelming conflict.
Indrajit observes Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa positioned among the Vānaras, actively releasing dense volleys of arrows in the battlefield.
Vīrya (heroic strength) and dhairya (steadfastness) of Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa, portrayed through powerful martial imagery.
