रामस्य राजमार्गगमनम्
Rama’s Progress along the Royal Highway
अलमद्य हि भुक्तेन परमार्थैरलं च नः।।।।यदि पश्याम निर्यान्तं रामं राज्ये प्रतिष्ठितम्।
alam adya hi bhuktena paramārthair alaṃ ca naḥ | yadi paśyāma niryāntaṃ rāmaṃ rājyе pratiṣṭhitam ||
«Сегодня нам довольно и пищи — и даже высшие цели жизни покажутся исполненными, — если лишь увидим Раму, прочно утверждённого в царстве, выходящим в торжественном шествии.»
Surrounded by friends overwhelmed with great joy, that glorious Rama aboard the chariot beheld the city decorated with banners and pennants and made fragrant with expensive incense and agaru and crowded with multitudes of people.
Dharma is the longing for righteous rule: people value a dharmic king so highly that worldly needs seem secondary.
The citizens express their heartfelt desire to witness Rama established as king and moving in a ceremonial procession.
Rama’s perceived dharmic fitness for rule—his satya and restraint inspire public trust and devotion.
