Question

Both Lakshmana’s choice to go into exile and Bharata’s refusal to accept the title of king illustrate loyalty and humility. Moreover, Hanuman's actions on the battlefield represent bravery and nobility. Discuss two of these three characters’ actions with regard to the concept of dharma. How do their actions reflect the concept of dharma and highlight the values of the Hindu religion?

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

• The idea of Dharma is identified with righteousness, devotion, obligation, and right method for living. It is important to carry on with an honorable life and subsequently, is considered as most significant in having a decent existence.
• The character of Lakshmana, Rama's more youthful sibling pursued his Dharma or uprightness by moving out with Rama during the 14 years of outcast. During this time of 14 years he stayed with Rama, he confronted loathsome perils yet never left his sibling's side, together they battled every one of the risks.
• He was faithful to Rama in each conceivable sense, and he obeyed and respected Rama with most extreme worship. These qualities of Lakshmana shows how he pursued Dharma of a more youthful sibling with devotion and responsibility.
• In the comparable way when Bharata discovered that how his mom had accomplished the realm for him, he would not sit on the position of authority.
• As he accepted that it was not honest or his dharma for him to sit on the position of authority that had a place with his senior sibling, he never sat on the royal position rather he brought paduka (shoes) of Rama and spots them on the honored position.
• He pursued his Dharma by giving up the position of authority and self-centeredness, however without Rama he took care of the undertakings of the realm with equity and decency yet similarly as an overseer.
