Dharma is faithful service to righteousness: Hanumān offers his own strength as a vehicle for the just reunion of Rāma and Sītā.

Hanumān reassures Sītā that Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa will soon come to her, even imagining bringing them swiftly upon his back.

Devotion and self-offering—Hanumān’s readiness to use his power entirely for Rāma’s dharmic purpose.
