FAQs

A king’s dharma includes prompt, respectful reception of powerful sages; neglect invites grave consequences.

Ayodhyā is the sacred setting; the narrative supports Ayodhyā’s Māhātmya by portraying Rāma’s exemplary dharma there.

No explicit rite is prescribed; the implied dharma is immediate hospitality and honoring a tapasvī (ascetic sage).
