Meaning

Seeing the beautiful dark hue of the river water, Bharata and the entire company became absorbed. They were as if sinking in the ocean of separation from the Lord of the Raghus, and then climbed aboard the ship of discernment—that is, seeing the dark water, they were moved by love for the dark-hued Lord and pained by separation from Him, but the thought of soon beholding Him in person revived their courage.
