Narada identifies Rama not merely as a good man but as dharma made flesh — "vigrahavan dharmah." The Ramayana's entire narrative logic follows from this: every action Rama takes, even the most painful, is an expression of dharma living in a human body under constraint. His perfection is not the ease of the divine but the costly fidelity of the human who chooses rightly, even when it is the harder road.
राम साक्षात् धर्म के मानव-रूप हैं — साधु, सत्य-प्रतिज्ञ; जैसे देवों में इन्द्र, वैसे सम्पूर्ण लोकों के राजा।
अक्षरशः अनुवाद — मूल संस्कृत श्लोक के प्रत्येक पद का प्रत्यक्ष अर्थ।
Rama is dharma itself in embodied form — a virtuous man, true to his word, the king of all the worlds as Indra is king of the gods.

राम साक्षात् धर्म के मानव-रूप हैं — साधु, सत्य-प्रतिज्ञ; जैसे देवों में इन्द्र, वैसे सम्पूर्ण लोकों के राजा। आदत और परिणाम एक चक्र बनाते हैं: जो बार-बार किया जाता है, वह अगली प्रवृत्ति को मजबूत करता है। यह पंक्ति कर्म को उसी चक्र के रूप में देखती है, भाग्य के आकस्मिक प्रहार के रूप में नहीं।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
