41 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अयोध्याकाण्डे अष्टमः सर्गः ॥२-८॥ मन्थरा त्वभ्यसूय्यैनामुत्सृज्याभरणं हि तत्। उवाचेदं ततो वाक्यं कोपदुःखसमन्विता॥ १॥
In the illustrious Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Ayodhyā-kāṇḍa, this is the eighth canto. Then Mantharā, reproaching her and casting aside that ornament, spoke these words, being filled with anger and sorrow:
हर्षं किमर्थमस्थाने कृतवत्यसि बालिशे। शोकसागरमध्यस्थं नात्मानमवबुध्यसे॥ २॥
Why have you rejoiced at an improper time, foolish woman? Do you not understand yourself as standing in the midst of an ocean of sorrow?
मनसा प्रसहामि त्वां देवि दुःखार्दिता सती। यच्छोचितव्ये हृष्टासि प्राप्य त्वं व्यसनं महत्॥ ३॥
I endure you with my mind, O goddess, while being afflicted by sorrow. When you ought to be grieving, you are delighted, although you have encountered great misfortune.
शोचामि दुर्मतित्वं ते का हि प्राज्ञा प्रहर्षयेत्। अरेः सपत्नीपुत्रस्य वृद्धिं मृत्योरिवागताम्॥ ४॥
I grieve over your bad-mindedness. For what wise woman would rejoice at the growth of the son of a co-wife—an enemy’s son—as if death itself had arrived?
भरतादेव रामस्य राज्यसाधारणाद् भयम्। तद् विचिन्त्य विषण्णास्मि भयं भीताद्धि जायते॥ ५॥
There is fear for Rama from Bharata alone, because Bharata has an equal claim to the kingdom. Thinking of that, I am distressed; for fear indeed arises from one who is frightened.
