सीताहरणोत्तरं लङ्काप्रवेशः
Sita’s Abduction and Ravana’s Entry into Lanka
स तु सीतां विवेष्टन्तीमङ्केनादाय रावणः।।।।प्रविवेश पुरीं लङ्कां रूपिणीं मृत्युमात्मनः।
sa tu sītāṃ viveṣṭantīm aṅkenādāya rāvaṇaḥ |
praviveśa purīṃ laṅkāṃ rūpiṇīṃ mṛtyum ātmanaḥ ||
Doch Rāvaṇa nahm Sītā, die sich wand und wehrte, in die Armbeuge und trat in die Stadt Laṅkā ein, in ihr die leibhaftige Gestalt seines eigenen Todes tragend.
Ravana entered the city of Lanka holding Sita who was tossing from side to side and who was the very embodiment of his death.
A wrongful gain becomes self-destructive: what is seized through adharma turns into the very cause of ruin (karma returning upon the doer).
Rāvaṇa brings the abducted Sītā into Laṅkā, despite her resistance.
Sītā’s steadfast chastity and inner integrity are implied by her resistance; her presence becomes a moral force that exposes and condemns adharma.
