പർവ്വതശിഖരത്തെപ്പോലെ ഉയർന്ന ലങ്കയുടെ ഉത്തരദ്വാരം, ധനുസ്സധാരിയായ ശ്രീരാമൻ അനുജനോടുകൂടെ കാത്തുസൂക്ഷിച്ച് തടഞ്ഞുനിർത്തി.
Accompanied by his brother Lakshmana, Rama, armed with bow, blocked the northern gate of Lanka which was like a lofty mountain peak and protected.
Dharma is protective responsibility: securing critical points prevents harm to allies and advances justice with minimal disorder.
Rama and Lakshmana take position at Lanka’s northern gate, holding it as part of the battle plan.
