Rāvana has taken away Sītā at a moment when a person regains soon his lost property. O Kākutstha, this moment is called Vindya, which Rāvana has not been able to perceive. (At this moment) the person who takes away (a thing) is soon destroyed like to a fish devouring a hook. This refers to Jatāyu's astrological knowledge. Vindya is derived from the root Vid-to gain. Thus this moment is favourable to the laser and unfavourable to the taker. Hence Rāvana carrying away Sītā at this moment shall meet with destruction.
येन याति मुहूर्तेन सीतामादाय रावणः। विप्रणष्टं धनं क्षिप्रं तत्स्वामी प्रतिपद्यते॥ विन्दो नाम मुहूर्तोऽसौ न च काकुत्स्थ सोऽबुधत्। झषवद् बडिशं गृह्य क्षिप्रमेव विनश्यति ॥
