Note 63 — ĀRANYA KĀNDAM. (continued 4)
Manmatha Nath Dutt translation
This refers to Jatāyu's astrological knowledge. Vindya is derived from the root Vid—-to gain. Thus this moment is favourable to the loser and unfavourable to the taker. Hence Rāvana carrying away Sitā at this moment shall meet with destruction.—T.
