Dharma here is cooperative service (sevā) to a righteous mission: many act together, exerting strength and effort for a higher, just purpose.
The vānaras begin the physical work for the bridge by breaking and hauling materials into the ocean.
Udyama (energetic effort) and saṅgha-śakti (collective strength working in unity).
