Hanuman’s Stealth Entry and Survey of Lanka
सहेमजाम्बूनदचक्रवालं महार्हमुक्तामणिभूषितान्तम्।परार्थ्यकालागुरुचन्दनाक्तं स रावणान्तःपुरमाविवेश।।।।
sa-hema-jāmbūnada-cakravālaṁ mahārha-muktā-maṇi-bhūṣitāntam |
parārthya-kālāguru-candanāktaṁ sa rāvaṇāntaḥpuram āviveśa ||
他进入罗波那的内宫:周围墙垣以精炼黄金辉映,处处饰以珍贵珠玉,并涂抹上上等黑沉香(伽卢)与檀香膏,香泽庄严。
The houses reverberating with sounds of laughter and of musical instruments, decorated with lattice windows of diamonds resembled the sky shining with clouds with a goad made of diamond (thunderbolt of Indra).
Dharma is commitment to a truthful objective despite seductive power: Hanumān proceeds into the heart of Rāvaṇa’s domain, unmoved by luxury, to locate Sītā and uphold Rāma’s righteous cause.
Hanumān enters Rāvaṇa’s inner palace/antaḥpura, described as richly fortified and perfumed.
Self-control and mission-focus: he penetrates the most alluring and dangerous space without losing ethical direction.
