FAQs

Restorative dharma: wrongdoing should be corrected by returning what was taken (Sītā) and making restitution, choosing peace through truth rather than persisting in injustice.

Vibhīṣaṇa urges Rāvaṇa to end the conflict by surrendering Sītā to Rāma with gifts, thereby saving Laṅkā from destruction.

Moral courage and compassionate statesmanship—prioritizing the people’s welfare and righteousness over ego and possessiveness.
