दूषणवधः
The Slaying of Dūṣaṇa and the Rout of Khara’s Host
प्रतिगृह्य च तद्वर्षं निमीलित इवर्षभः।।।।रामः क्रोधं परं भेजे वधार्थं सर्वरक्षसाम्।
pratigṛhya ca tadvarṣaṁ nimīlita ivarṣabhaḥ | rāmaḥ krodhaṁ paraṁ bheje vadhārthaṁ sarvarakṣasām ||
罗摩承受并回击那兵刃之雨,犹如闭目奋进之雄牛,遂起极烈之忿怒,誓为诛尽一切罗刹。
Rama killed a hundred demons with one hundred arrows by a single stroke. The same way he killed a thousand of them with a thousand arrows on the battle front.
Rama’s anger is framed as duty-bound resolve: righteous force is taken up to end violent wrongdoing and protect the moral order, not for personal cruelty.
In the forest battle, Rama faces a heavy barrage of weapons and steels himself to eliminate the rākṣasa threat.
Steadfast courage and kṣātra-dharma—unflinching resolve in combat when confronting adharma.
