FAQs

What is the core ethical principle (Dharma) in this verse?

Dharma as restraint and role-clarity: after ensuring Sugrīva’s rightful enthronement, Rāma returns to his ascetic-exile stance rather than enjoying royal proximity.

What is the narrative situation?

Sugrīva completes consecration and enters Kiṣkindhā; Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa relocate to Prasravaṇa to reside apart, consistent with exile discipline.

Which character virtue is emphasized?

Detachment and steadiness—Rāma maintains the exile code even amidst successful alliance-making.
