Lord Shri Ram is called ‘Sarvadaman’, that is, he can destroy everything at his will and no one can stop him. Lord Shri Ram is also called ‘Karunsagar’, which means he will deliver the salvation of all his devotees/devotees. The only thing we need to do is to become His devotee and completely surrender and depend on Him. Lord Shri Ram always saves his devotees and similarly destroys those who are against the religion. He did the same in this incarnation of Lord Shri Ram. Lord Shri Ram is the 7th incarnation of Lord Shri Vishnu. He killed many demons in his time. Below is the list of demons killed by Lord Rama:
