" DHARMO RAKSHATI RAKSHITAH !!! "
- DHARMA protects the one who protects it
" Before leaving Ayodhya to the forest, Rama went to Kaushalya to take leave of her. Is it not the practice that a mother gives edibles to her son who is starting on a journey, so that he may eat them on the way? What is to be given to a son who is to be away for fourteen years? Kaushalya did not know what to give. After pondering deeply she said,
“O Raghava! There is nothing that I could do to protect you. There is only dharma. That dharma will protect you, which you have been preserving with courage, constancy and regularity. That is the only blessing that I can give.” If we preserve dharma, it preserves us in turn. The dharma that protected Rama is the dharma, which is the Law in God’s universal empire "
