"Let the Rakshasas climb up the defensive walls and attempt to guard. Also let Kumbhakarna be aroused from sleep."
Dharma in action includes vigilance and responsibility—defenses must be actively maintained rather than neglected through complacency.
Rāvaṇa issues immediate tactical instructions: strengthen the city’s guard and awaken Kumbhakarṇa.
A sense of duty expressed as alertness and readiness (apramāda) in protecting one’s station.
