What is dharma, and how do characters such as Rama, Lakshmana and Hanuman exemplify the role of dharma?Start by introducing, quoting, and discussing the following passage:'From death itself I would not flyMy father's wish to gratify, What deed soe'er his loving sonMay do to please him, think it done (537).Select another relevant passage of your own choosing from the Ramayana (the lines of poetry, not the summaries). Choose carefully, thinking about how these two passages might speak to overarching themes and the bolded text in the Purpose, above. How do the two passages illustrate a conclusion about actions that are motivated by dharma in the Ramayana, and how is that significant or important for understanding Rama and possibly Lakshmana or Hanuman within their culture--or heroes more generally? You might want to sketch out your initial thoughts in lists, a concept map, or whatever note format helps you the most.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
