रावणरथवैभव–निमित्तदर्शन–राममातलिसंवादः (Ravana’s Chariot, Portents, and Rama–Matali Instructions)

एवंप्रकाराबहवस्समुत्पाताभयापहाः ।।।।रावणस्यविनाशायदारुणाःसम्प्रजज्ञिरे ।

evaṃprakārā bahavaḥ samutpātā bhayāvahāḥ |

rāvaṇasya vināśāya dāruṇāḥ samprajajñire ||

Thus, many dreadful and fearsome portents arose—terrible in form—proclaiming the destruction of Rāvaṇa.

In that manner, many frightful and dreadful objects falling indicated destruction of Ravana.

R
Rāvaṇa

Actions bear fruit: the rise of repeated portents underscores karmic inevitability—persistent adharma culminates in ruin.

After listing multiple ominous phenomena, the narrative summarizes their import: they foretell Rāvaṇa’s end.

The implied virtue is heedfulness (apramāda): the wise heed warnings and align with dharma before consequences become irreversible.
