अक्षवधः (The Slaying of Prince Aksha)
Sundarakāṇḍa Sarga 47
ततः कपिस्तं विचरन्तमम्बरे पतत्रिराजानिलसिद्धसेविते।समेत्य तं मारुततुल्यविक्रमः क्रमेण जग्राह स पादयोर्दृढम्।।5.47.34।।
tataḥ kapis taṃ vicarantam ambare patatrirājānilasiddhasevite |
sametya taṃ mārutatulyavikramaḥ krameṇa jagrāha sa pādayor dṛḍham ||5.47.34||
随后,那威力如风的神猴在空中追上了他——那是金翅鸟、风神和悉达们出没之处——并紧紧抓住了他的双脚。
Thereupon Hanuman with the prowess that was equal to wind, approaching the sky firmly caught hold of the legs of Aksha flying into the abode of Garuda, the Wind-god and the Siddhas.
Dharma in action is steadfastness: once a righteous mission is underway, obstacles are met with unwavering resolve and capability.
Akṣa tries to fight from the air; Hanumān closes the distance and captures him by the legs mid-flight.
Superlative strength and control—power guided by precision rather than chaos.
