ಮೂಲ & ಕಥೆ
Valmiki Ramayana, Aranya Kanda (words of Maricha to Ravana) · Maharishi Valmiki · Ancient (Treta Yuga setting; classical epic)
In the Aranya Kanda of Valmiki's Ramayana, Ravana approaches the demon Maricha to enlist his help in abducting Sita. Maricha, who had already once felt Rama's power, tries to dissuade Ravana by extolling Rama's greatness. In this verse he declares that Rama is dharma embodied, of unfailing valour, and the king of all the world like Indra among the gods — a warning that to oppose Rama is to oppose righteousness itself.
✦ ಶಾಸ್ತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಳಿದಂತೆ
It is striking that this supreme praise of Rama comes from the mouth of a demon, Maricha — testimony that even Rama's foes could not deny His divinity and righteousness; tradition holds that to remember Rama as 'dharma incarnate' aligns the devotee with the very power of truth.
