सीतारावणसंवादः — Ravana Reveals Himself; Sita Affirms Rama’s Dharma
रावणेनैवमुक्ता तु कुपिता जनकात्मजा।प्रत्युवाचानवद्याङ्गी तमनादृत्य राक्षसम्।।3.47.32।।
rāvaṇenaivam uktā tu kupitā janakātmajā | pratyuvāca anavadyāṅgī tam anādṛtya rākṣasam || 3.47.32 ||
Thus addressed by Rāvaṇa, Janaka’s daughter—faultless in form—grew wrathful and replied, disregarding that rākṣasa.
Thus addressed by Ravana, Janaki, a lady of blemishless limbs, got enraged and replied without caring for the demon:
Moral courage in the face of wrongdoing: Sītā refuses to dignify adharma with compliance or fear, preparing to answer from the standpoint of righteousness.
After Rāvaṇa’s seductive promises, Sītā becomes angry and begins her firm rebuttal.
Fearless self-respect and principled speech: she does not flatter or appease the aggressor, but responds with clarity and strength.
