Shloka 3.26.4
दूषणवधः (The Slaying of Dūṣaṇa and the Rout of Khara’s Host)
प्रतिगृह्य च तद्वर्षं निमीलित इवर्षभः।।।।रामः क्रोधं परं भेजे वधार्थं सर्वरक्षसाम्।
śeṣā hatā mahāsattvā rākṣasā raṇamūrdhani | ghorā durviṣahāḥ sarve lakṣmaṇasyāgrajena te ||
The remaining rākṣasas—mighty, dreadful, and hard to withstand—were all slain at the battle’s forefront by Lakṣmaṇa’s elder brother, Rāma.
Rama retaliated in great anger to kill without caring for the shower of weapons like a bull with its eyes closed.
The verse reinforces protective dharma: even formidable threats must be met fully so that danger does not return to harm the innocent.
It concludes the elimination of the remaining demon fighters at the battlefront.
Thoroughness and resolve—Rama completes the duty of protection without leaving the work half-done.
