All of them became learned in the Vedas; all were heroic; all were devoted to the welfare of the people; all were endowed with knowledge, and all were rich in virtues.
All the sons (of Dasaratha) became well-versed in the Vedas. They were heroic, endowed with knowledge and virtues and were devoted to the welfare of the people.
Dharma for leaders combines learning, courage, and public welfare: knowledge is not isolated scholarship but must serve loka-hita.
The narrator summarizes the upbringing and qualities shared by all four princes as they grow.
A balanced excellence—learning, bravery, wisdom, and commitment to the common good.
