Rāma, the eldest son—mighty-armed and radiant—obeyed his father’s command and took the righteous path of dharma, entering the Daṇḍaka forest with his brother Lakṣmaṇa and with Sītā, his wife.
"His eldest son, a highly effulgent one, named Rama who was dear to the king, accepting his father's orders went into exile with brother Lakshmana and wife Sita also accepting a righteous path and entered Dandaka forest.
Dharma is shown as consistency in righteous choice: the tradition repeats Rāma’s dharmic decision to stress its centrality.
Hanumān continues the summary of Rāma’s exile circumstances, emphasizing dharma as the motive.
Rāma’s truthfulness and dutiful endurance; Lakṣmaṇa and Sītā’s loyalty through shared hardship.
