FAQs
Dharma requires clarity before assuming authority: Rāma seeks truthful knowledge of Bharata’s inner state to ensure the transition of rule remains righteous and non-coercive.
Before entering Ayodhyā, Rāma asks Hanumān to meet Bharata first, deliver the message, and carefully note Bharata’s reaction.
