You can't. At the moment there is no explicit "back-pointer" from
a RDDL to the target it describes. Jonathan and I talked about this
but couldn't think of a good reason to have one. But we didn't
consider it that much; is there a good reason?

No, if you go and read the introduction to the RDDL spec, it states
clearly that the links are from the descriptions of the related resouces
to the related resources being described. We re-wrote the intro because
of precisely the question you just asked. -Tim
