37 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे सुन्दरकाण्डे पञ्चपञ्चाशः सर्गः ॥५-५५॥ संदीप्यमानां वित्रस्तां त्रस्तरक्षोगणां पुरीम्। अवेक्ष्य हनुमाँल्लङ्कां चिन्तयामास वानरः॥ १॥
In the venerable Valmiki Ramayana, in the Sundara Kāṇḍa, this is the fifty-fifth canto. Having seen Lanka blazing, terrified, and with its hosts of demons terrified, the monkey Hanuman reflected:
तस्याभूत् सुमहांस्त्रासः कुत्सा चात्मन्यजायत। लङ्कां प्रदहता कर्म किंस्वित् कृतमिदं मया॥ २॥
A very great fear arose in him, and self-reproach arose in his own mind: “What deed indeed has been done by me, who burned Lanka?”
धन्याः खलु महात्मानो ये बुद्ध्या कोपमुत्थितम्। निरुन्धन्ति महात्मानो दीप्तमग्निमिवाम्भसा॥ ३॥
Fortunate indeed are the great-souled ones who restrain, through understanding, the anger that has arisen, just as one restrains a blazing fire with water.
क्रुद्धः पापं न कुर्यात् कः क्रुद्धो हन्याद् गुरूनपि। क्रुद्धः परुषया वाचा नरः साधूनधिक्षिपेत्॥ ४॥
Who, when angry, would not commit sin? When angry, one might even kill one’s elders. When angry, a man might insult good people with harsh speech.
वाच्यावाच्यं प्रकुपितो न विजानाति कर्हिचित्। नाकार्यमस्ति क्रुद्धस्य नावाच्यं विद्यते क्वचित्॥ ५॥
An enraged person never knows what should and should not be said. For an angry person there is no deed that should not be done, and nowhere is there anything that should not be said.
