Janaki Mangal • Chapter 1 • Shloka 116
सो धनु कहिय बिलोकन भूप किसोरहि। भेद कि सिरिस सुमन कन कुलिस कठोरहि॥
You are asking this young prince (Lord Ram) who has a delicate constitution and a tender body to have a look at such a formidable bow. In other words, you, sage Vishwamitra, expect Ram to lift the bow which has defeated all the strong warriors of the earth. How is it possible because Sri Ram has such a delicate frame, and his body is not as muscular as it is needed to be in order to lift this heavy bow. Say sage, is it possible that a most tender flower of the Sesame tree can ever pierce through even a small part of of Vajra, the formidably strong weapon of Indra that is considered to be toughest thing in existence?’ (Here, the bow is compared to Vajra, and Lord Ram’s delicate frame to the tender flower. Just as it is not possible for the flower to pierce the body of the Vajra, it is impossible for Ram to overcome the resistence of the bow to move.)
