Sugreeva encourages Rama
Sungreeva could not stand Rama was worried like this. Due to the friendhip he had for Rama he considered the Joy and Sorrow as his own.When Danger befalls to a Friend, when he goes on the bad path, when a time elapses for a task to be accomplished, if we sincerely desire his well being, even though he may not ask us, we have to do counsel Hitham (Palatable, Soothing counsel - in the interest / Good of His- well meant) should be done , in consonance with that Sashtra (Doctrine); Sugreeva spoke words which will alleviate him.Rama was brought up in opulence by Emperor Dasaratha; not worthy of worries; one who confers Bliss to all the Living beings ; as Shukra says in Kamandhka Needhi (Justice, Morality, Law, Righteousness) Purity, Charity, Valour, experiencing Joy & Sorrows, affection, Cleverness, Sathyam (Eternal Truth)” Sugreeva possess these qualities of Friend.
“Rama! Like other insignificant men you are in distress. Can you do this? Like the ungrateful person forgets the earlier Freindship totally, please forsake the pain in your Manam {Chitha (Memory) + Inner Conscience Mind +Intellect(Bhuddhi) +Ego}.
There is no justification for you to get worried like this. So far there was reason of not knowing where Sita was.Now that is also not there.You are a farsighted person who know what is going to come; an expert in NeethiSashtras,Governing Rules of Justice,Morality,Law,Righteousness) ; You have the intellect to bear with hurdles while carrying out a task; you weigh pros and cons of matters before taking decisions. So if one considers your qualities there is no justificationLike the Yogi shuns the intellect which spoils the Best Salvation of attaining Moksha please cast aside this Sinful intellect. There is no justification that we cannot cross the sea. We will cross this sea filled with Gory Animals along with our Army and we will enter Lanka and kill Enemies. We have no reason to think that we do not have adequate support. These Vanara Warriors who are here are extreemly Great Valorous persons, sagacious, countless of them, if you order them to jump in fire they are ready and will do so with happiness, Killing our enemies is it that difficult for our Warriors?. From their morale, the happiness in their faces, enthusiasm I know this well. I have special confidence in that.When you have no easons to worry why have worries? If you give room to worry, it will destroy enthusiasm; loss of which means you become Timidness / hesitation / feeble attempts which in turn will destroy wealth; when wealth decimates dangers come up; all the benefits that you have will get Harmed. That great sinner Ravana we will kill him in battle, and bringback Sita, for this we will construct a Bridge and so make arrangements for us to enter Lanka. If you ask ‘What is the use of seeing Lanka? Please understand that the moment Lanka is sighted Believe that it means that Ravana is killed in the Battle. Without constructing the Bridge in the vast sea we cannot destroy Lanka , even it is not possible for Deva Asura. The moment we construct bridge across to Lanka ensure we have won over Enemy’s Army. These Vanaras are exponents in War fare; can take the disguise as they think. So do not give room to the sorrow which will destroy all the Purusharthas {(1) Dharma-Righteous conduct- Duty- Pious- humble-Charity -being Noble (2) Material-money,(3) Desire-ambition-Children,(4) Moksha-Attain God’s feet}. Greif will destroy Man’s all powers of reasoning, Valour, Vitality, Vigour. It is not that, you should forsake grief and adapt Courage. The Man who wants Valour as his main armoury is by earniing Courage and Prowess, please rekindle that. If you say “This worry is not due to Sea, .it is because you haven’t see Sita’ great souls like you whose Aim may be clouded or hurt can they give Room to sorrow? You are the greatest amongst Intellectuals; You know the meaning of all Sashtras (Vedic Doctrines / testaments) in full; You have to win over enemies due to Ministers like me.Is there any one in all 3 worlds when you stand with Kothandam (Bpw) in your hand? The Task entrusted to these Vanaras will never fail. You will see Sita after crossing this Vast sea. So it is enoughtime, you have given room for the sorrow. Bring in Anger. Person who has severe resolve makes the Kshatriys who does not make efforts Luckless fellows scared. So to cross the Gory vast sea please let us think together the core effort to be undertaken. Be sure that the moment our Vanaras cross the sea we will win over our Enemies.These are Valouros in Battle; they can take any disguise they think; they will destroy Enemies with trees, boulders. OK leave aside building bridge, let us find some other means we will cross the sea and erase the Enemies. Seeing the Good Omens there is no doubt that we will get victory; from the happiness bublling in myself, I am firm that Victory is ours. Whether you construct Bridge across the sea or not you are returning with Jayalakshmi (Goddess of Victory) with you from Lanka. (Slokas26)
