Question 8

BĀLA KĀṆḌAM
06.12 Anuṣṭubh (Śloka)
नोदितो मेऽतिविक्रमः

Answer 8

नोदितो मेऽतिविक्रमः == ‘(his) valor was aroused by me’ [THIS WORK IS FULL OF GEN/LOC ENCLITIC FORMS OF PERSONAL PRONOUNS USED AS INSTR. AGENTS]

नोदितो मेऽतिविक्रमः
I DON’T THINK transl. RENDERS THIS
SEEMS TO MEAN: “I (Viśvāmitra) didn’t lift a finger.”, “No attack of mine was employed” I.E. RAMA DIDN’T NEED ANY HELP. THAT IS WHAT THE अति - IS DOING HERE. IT MEANS ‘IN ADDITION TO’ WHAT RAMA DID
BUT I AM NOT SURE SINCE नोदित INSTEAD OF न + उदित COULD ALSO BE
नोदित mfn. (fr. Causal) incited, impelled
MEANING HERE “(He killed Tataka with a single arrow, he) his super-heroism inspired/aroused for me/for my benefit” WHICH IS MAYBE MORE LIKELY (?)
