As instructed by Sugreev Hanuman for first time see Ram and Lakshman
* पठए बालि होहिं मन मैला। भागौं तुरत तजौं यह सैला॥
बिप्र रूप धरि कपि तहँ गयऊ। माथ नाइ पूछत अस भयऊ॥3॥
भावार्थ:-यदि वे मन के मलिन बालि के भेजे हुए हों तो मैं तुरंत ही इस पर्वत को छोड़कर भाग जाऊँ (यह सुनकर) हनुमानजी ब्राह्मण का रूप धरकर वहाँ गए और मस्तक नवाकर इस प्रकार पूछने लगे-
If the evil hearted Bali has sent them, I’d leave this mountain and flee in no time.” Hanuman, in the garb of Brahmin, there went, Addressed Them when his head, to Them he had bent.
* को तुम्ह स्यामल गौर सरीरा। छत्री रूप फिरहु बन बीरा ॥
कठिन भूमि कोमल पद गामी। कवन हेतु बिचरहु बन स्वामी॥4॥
भावार्थ:-हे वीर! साँवले और गोरे शरीर वाले आप कौन हैं, जो क्षत्रिय के रूप में वन में फिर रहे हैं? हे स्वामी! कठोर भूमि पर कोमल चरणों से चलने वाले आप किस कारण वन में विचर रहे हैं?॥4॥
O valiant, fair and dark complexioned, Who are You here as Kshatris? He questioned, Ground is rough to walk on, Your feet soft well, What has led You, Lord, roam in forests
Conclusion :
Sugreev also wanted to validate if Ram, Lakshman can be helpful to him .Although he was not knowing their name neither he recognized the power and realized Ram is real form of God . In my opinion Sugreev was so much concern for saving his life and afraid of Bali that he forgot the reality of building self-confidence is important to face the challenges .
Another question comes to our mind that if Hanuman ji took shape of Brahmin then why he bent to Ram and Lakshman ( he had not yet recognized them). Normally any one in Brahmin dress is respected and we normally show respect and bent our heard . Possible reasons
(1) If Hanuman took Brahmin dress than Ram and Lakshman was also has appearance as saint ( Muni).(2) Sugreev was in so much stress that he was not confident that someone can save him and hence Hanuman wanted show respect to possible friendship and get Ram’s help.(3) Also its good moral values that if we find someone in our way normally we talk nicely and show respect with humilit
Hanuman also has been thinking if Ram, Lakshman looks like saint then why they have carrying bow and arrow ( Dhanush bhan) and from outside he though them as prince . But Hanuman was not sure hence he decided a different form of communication and asked who you are and what they are doing in forest and questioned ground is very rough to walk on it will hurt your feet soft feet
In summary at new place and environment initially judge the place , understand quality of your friendship/ trust before you reveal everything rather intelligent way keeping your dignity try to get as much information as possible . This illustrate quality of hanuman as intelligent with great knowledge with planning capability to plan a success in new environment without any hesitation at same time offering respect to even unknown person. Let’s adopt these learning in our daily life
