तं देवाः सूदयिष्यंति उपायैः सामपूर्वकैः । त्रैलोक्यकण्टको यद्वत्तस्य भ्राता दशाननः
taṃ devāḥ sūdayiṣyaṃti upāyaiḥ sāmapūrvakaiḥ | trailokyakaṇṭako yadvattasya bhrātā daśānanaḥ
Chư thiên sẽ diệt trừ người ấy bằng những phương kế khởi đầu từ hòa giải—như họ đã diệt người anh của ông, Daśānana, kẻ gai nhọn của ba cõi.
Rāma (continuation of his reasoning)
Scene: A divine council scene: devas in assembly, a looming shadowy figure symbolizing a ‘thorn to the three worlds,’ with a remembered silhouette of ten-headed Rāvaṇa as precedent; the mood is strategic, not celebratory.
Adharma brings inevitable correction; even divine governance uses graded means (sāma and other upāyas) to restore order.
No specific tīrtha is named; the verse uses Rāvaṇa’s example as a moral reference.
None; this verse discusses upāyas (methods) rather than rites.
