सप्तदशः सर्गः — देवसंवादः तथा वानर-ऋक्ष-उत्पत्तिः
Divine Council and the Generation of Vanara Allies
ते प्रधानेषु यूथेषु हरीणां हरियूथपा:।बभूवुर्यूथपश्रेष्ठा वीरांश्चाजनयन् हरीन्।।।।
te pradhāneṣu yūtheṣu harīṇāṃ hariyūthapāḥ | babhūvur yūthapaśreṣṭhā vīrāṃś cājanayan harīn ||
在诸多尊贵的猿族部众中,那些统帅成为最卓越的领袖,并繁衍出英勇的猿众。
Those monkey commanders created heroic monkeys among the chief monkey -clans who later proved the best among clan-leaders.
Dharma here is collective responsibility: effective leaders cultivate further strength and virtue in others, building a community capable of protecting righteousness.
The text continues the account of how organized vānaras arose—chief commanders became exemplary leaders and produced further heroic warriors within the leading clans.
Leadership through cultivation: the best leaders are those who create and train more heroes for a just purpose.
