सीताया रावणं प्रति धर्मोपदेशः (Sita’s Dharmic Admonition to Ravana)
अतुष्टं स्वेषु दारेषु चपलं चलितेन्द्रियम्।।।।नयन्ति निकृतिप्रज्ञं परदाराः पराभवम्।
kṣipraṃ tava sa nātho me rāmaḥ saumitriṇā saha |
toyam alpam ivādityaḥ prāṇān ādāsyate śaraiḥ ||
Swiftly, my lord Rāma—together with Saumitrī—will take away your life with his arrows, as the Sun quickly draws up a little water.
"The wives of others will insult an evil-minded man who is not satisfied with his own wives, is fickle-minded and has no control over his senses.
Dharma is protective and decisive: when violated, righteous action (punishment of wrongdoing) follows without delay.
Sītā foretells Rāma’s swift vengeance and uses a nature simile (sun evaporating water) to stress inevitability.
Confidence in dharma and in Rāma’s righteous power.
