Wahai rajanīcara, pengembara malam! Dosa yang kau perbuat—karena kebodohan dan kesombongan—terhadap para ṛṣi, para dewa, para Gandharva dan Apsarā, juga para Nāga, Yakṣa, dan para raja, kini telah tiba saat perhitungan yang keras dan tak terelakkan. Sungguh hari ini kesombonganmu, lahir dari anugerah Sang Svayambhū (Brahmā), akan direndahkan.
"O night ranger! the time has come for punishment for the sins committed by you to the sages, Devatas, so also to Gandharvas, celestial beauties, Nagas, Yakshas and the kings because of your delusion in conceit. Surely your pride about the boons begotten from the self-born creator will be gone, said Rama.
Karma and dharma: wrongdoing against the innocent and the righteous inevitably ripens into consequences; arrogance based on power or boons cannot cancel moral law.
Rāma’s message condemns Rāvaṇa’s long history of abuses and declares that the time for unavoidable recompense has arrived.
Nyāya (justice) in Rāma—truthfully naming harm done and upholding accountability without personal malice.
