Mobilization and Counsel on Kingship
अमित्राणां वधे युक्तो मित्राणां सङ्ग्रहे रतः।।4.38.22।।त्रिवर्गफलभोक्ता तु राजा धर्मेण युज्यते।
amitrāṇāṃ vadhe yukto mitrāṇāṃ saṅgrahe rataḥ | trivargaphalabhoktā tu rājā dharmeṇa yujyate ||
国王若善于诛制仇敌,乐于结护友邦,便能享受人生三义(dharma、artha、kāma)之果;如此君主方是真正与达摩相应者。
Rāja-dharma is protective and relational: restrain or destroy threats (amitra) and preserve alliances (mitra). When power is exercised with righteousness, the ruler legitimately attains dharma, artha, and kāma.
Rāma continues giving governance counsel to Sugrīva, defining a dharmic king by enemy-control, friend-protection, and balanced human aims.
Just leadership—firmness against harm and loyalty toward allies, guided by dharma.
