Rama gives refuge to the sages in Dandaka-aranya and vows to protect them from the demons who descend right at the time of fire oblation. Sita expresses concern and advices Rama against it, for which Rama says "I will stand by my word even foregoing my life, Lakshmana, and you. I cannot forego my word. I will protect them at any cost."
Moral 1 : One has to protect righteousness even at the cost of one's life
Moral 2: One has to stand firm on the word given
Another way to understand this is :
Rishi : stands for wisdom
Yajna : Jnana yajna
Rakshasas : Negative tendencies
Wisdom seeks refuge in Rama - Atma
