Shloka 3.30.11
खरवधः — The Slaying of Khara (Janasthana Battle Climax)
अद्य शोकरसज्ञास्ता भविष्यन्ति निरर्थकाः।अनुरूपकुलाः पत्न्यो यासां त्वं पतिरीदृशः।।।।
adya śokarasajñās tā bhaviṣyanti nirarthakāḥ | anurūpakulāḥ patnyo yāsāṃ tvaṃ patir īdṛśaḥ || 3.30.11 ||
Today those wives of yours—women of fitting lineage—will taste only the flavor of grief, made widowed in vain, since their husband is one such as you.
Your wives, who have got a husband like you, must have been born to a befitting race. They will taste the pangs of sorrow today, for no reasons whatsoever.
Personal wrongdoing harms dependents: adharma is not private—it brings suffering to families and communities tied to the wrongdoer.
Rāma taunts and admonishes Khara by pointing to the sorrow that will fall upon Khara’s household due to his impending defeat.
Truthful admonition (satya with moral force): Rāma speaks bluntly about consequences to awaken accountability.
