On the occasion of Rama Navami, it will be interesting to learn the following shloka spoken to Rama by his mother, Kaushalya, before he leaves Ayodhya to fulfill the promise he made to his father.
यं पालयसि धर्मं त्वं धृत्या च नियमेन च |
स वै राघवशार्दूल धर्मत्वामभिरक्षतु ||
ಯಂ ಪಾಲಯಸಿ ಧರ್ಮಂ ತ್ವಂ ಧ್ರುತ್ವಾ ಚ ನಿಯಮೇನ ಚ ।
ಸ ವೈ ರಾಘವಶಾರ್ದೂಲ ಧರ್ಮತ್ವಾಮಭಿರಕ್ಷತು ।।
Meaning:
That Dharma you have held on/protected with principled resolve,
Oh! Best of Raghus, may that same Dharma protect you!
