The Display of the Illusory Head of Rāma
राक्षसंक्रूरकर्माणंविद्युज्जिह्वंत्वमानय ।येनतद्राघवशिरस्सङ्ग्रामात्स्वयमाहृतम् ।।।।
rākṣasaṃ krūrakarmāṇaṃ vidyujjihvaṃ tvam ānaya |
yena tad rāghavaśiraḥ saṅgrāmāt svayam āhṛtam ||
ಕ್ರೂರಕರ್ಮನಾದ ವಿದ್ಯುಜ್ಜಿಹ್ವ ಎಂಬ ರಾಕ್ಷಸನನ್ನು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕರೆತರು; ಯುದ್ಧಭೂಮಿಯಿಂದ ಆ ರಾಘವನ ಶಿರವನ್ನು ತಾನೇ ತಂದುಕೊಟ್ಟವನು ಅವನೇ.
"Bring that Rakshasa, Vidyujihvam of cruel deeds who brought Rama's head from the battlefield."
It shows adharma through deliberate deception and intimidation; dharma in the Ramayana upholds truth (satya) and rejects cruelty as a means of persuasion.
Rāvaṇa orders an attendant to summon Vidyujihva, who is associated with producing the supposed “head of Rāma.”
Negatively framed: the absence of compassion and truthfulness in Rāvaṇa’s strategy.
