Chapter 7: Mantharā Instructs Kaikeyī to Stop the Coronation
Text 2.7.35
रामे वा भरते वाहं विशेषं नोपलक्षये।
तस्मात्तुष्टास्मि यद्राजा रामं राज्येऽभिषेक्ष्यति॥
rāme vā bharate vāhaṁ viśeṣaṁ nopalakṣaye
tasmāt tuṣṭāsmi yad rājā rāmaṁ rājye ’bhiṣekṣyati
rāme vā = between Rāma; bharate = Bharata; vā = and; aham = I; viśeṣam na upalakṣaye = do not differentiate; tasmāt = so; tuṣṭā = happy; asmi = I am; yat = that; rājā = the king; rāmam = Rāma; rājye = [as the crown prince] for the kingdom; abhiṣekṣyati = will coronate.
I do not differentiate between Rāma and Bharata. So, I am happy that the king will coronate Rāma [as the crown prince] for the kingdom.
