समुद्रम् क्षोभयामास शरैः आदित्य सन्निभैः || १-१-७९
समुद्रम् क्षोभयामास शरैः आदित्य सन्निभैः || १-१-७९
79. tataH sugriiva sahitaH = then, Sugreeva, along with; mahaa udadheH tiiram gatvaa = of great ocean, to shore, on reaching; aaditya sannibhaiH sharaiH = Sun, similar, with arrows/sunrays; samudram kshobhayaamaasa = Samudra, the Ocean-god, [Rama] started to put to turmoil.
"Then, Rama along with Sugreeva and other monkeys has gone to the seashore of Great Ocean, and when Ocean-god is unyielding to give way, then he started to put the Ocean-god to turmoil with his arrows, as with Sun-god who puts an ocean to turmoil with his sunrays... [1-1-79]
Rama became angry at the ocean for not yielding way to the crossover. In order to make way through the ocean, Rama starts depleting its waters with arrows,sharaaH and in Sanskrit this word synonyms with the rays of sun, and therefore the similitude of Rama with Sun-god.
