Dharma is shown as steadfast loyalty to a righteous cause: the leaders and heroes of the alliance choose to accompany Rama, sharing risk and responsibility.
As Rama advances toward the decisive confrontation at Lanka, the principal allies and commanders move with him in close support.
Collective fidelity and solidarity—each ally demonstrates commitment to Rama’s righteous mission.
