RāmaFAQs
Dharma values transparent, respectful communication—one should properly present matters to the divine and the wise.
Dharmāraṇya remains the setting; the sanctity of place is mirrored in the careful propriety of actions done there.
An implied devotional protocol: nivedana—formally submitting one’s request or account to the deity/elders.
