FAQs

Dharma is daily self-regulation: completing prescribed morning rites before engaging in other duties reflects a life ordered by sacred responsibility and truthfulness to one’s obligations.

At dawn, Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa finish their morning practices and go to meet Viśvāmitra and the sages.

Discipline and readiness to serve—both brothers keep routine observances and then promptly attend their teacher.
