मारीचप्रलोभनम् / Ravana Solicits Maricha’s Aid
Golden Deer Stratagem
ते त्विदानीं जनस्थाने वसमाना महाबलाः।सङ्गताः परमायत्ता रामेण सह संयुगे।।।।नानाप्रहरणोपेताः खरप्रमुखराक्षसाः।
te tvidānīṃ janasthāne vasamānā mahābalāḥ | saṅgatāḥ paramāyattā rāmeṇa saha saṃyuge || nānāpraharaṇopetāḥ kharapramukharākṣasāḥ |
اب وہی مہابلی راکشس، جنستھان میں رہتے ہوئے—طرح طرح کے ہتھیاروں سے آراستہ، اور خرہ کی سرداری پر پوری طرح تکیہ کیے—رام کے ساتھ جنگ میں آمنے سامنے ہو گئے۔
These mighty demons, living in Janasthana, eqipped with different kinds of weapons, supported and led by Khara, met Rama in an encounter.
It shows the moral dimension of allegiance: dependence on an adharmic commander (Khara) draws even the strong into conflict against dharma embodied by Rāma.
Khara-led rākṣasas stationed at Janasthāna assemble with weapons and confront Rāma in battle.
Rāma’s role as the upholder of order is implicit; the verse contrasts organized adharmic force with dharmic resistance.
