जय श्रीराम!
असज्जनेन काकुत्स्थः प्रयुक्तमथ दुषणम् ।
न चक्षमे शुभाचारः स दुषणमिवात्मनः ॥१२.४६॥
Notes: Kālidāsa says, "Then, Seeing the Rākṣasa Dūṣaṇa, sent by and accompanied by evil maradauers, Śrīrāma dealt with him with no leniency, just as he would deal with his own personal weaknesses, given his penchant for righteousness."
Khara and Dūṣaṇa were considered invincible and were wreaking havoc in Danḍakāraṇya. This was divine dispensation that they were now coming to confront the Maryādāpuruṣa Śrīrāma. We worship him not only for his good looks but also for his good values and the avowed commitment to right a wrong, whether in himself or others, by force if needed. This is what is conveyed by the poet here.

जय श्रीराम!
