Sarama Assures Sita That Rama Is Alive Chapter [Sarga] “Om Sri Lakshmi Narashimhan Nahama” Valmiki Ramayana – Yuddha Kanda – Chapter 33 Sarama Assures Sita that Rama is Alive Summary An ogre [monster] named Sarama reassures Seetha by telling her that Ravana, the conjurer [wizard] created an illusory appearance of Rama’s head and exhibited it before her. She informs Seetha that Rama is still alive and is stationed along with his forces at the southern shore of the ocean. Sarama restores confidence to Seetha, by saying that Rama after killing Ravana in battle will soon win her back. Chapter [Sarga] 33 in Detail siitaam tu mohitaam dristvaa saramaa naama raaksasii | aasasaada aashu vaidehiim priyaam pranayinii sakhii || 6-33-1 Seeing the bewildered Seetha, a demon named Sarama, an affectionate female companion then approached Seetha, her beloved Seetha, and her beloved friend. mohitaam raakshasendrena siitaam paramaduhkhitaam | aashvaasayaamaasa tadaa saramaa mridubhaashinii || 6-33-2 Sarama, the soft-spoken woman, consoled Seetha who having been infatuated by Ravana was very much in distress. saa hi tatra kritaa mitram siitayaa raksyamaanayaa | raksantii raavanaad istaa saanukroshaa dridha vrataa || 6-33-3 Sarama, who was assigned by Ravana to guard Seetha, was kind hearted and firm in austerity. She was indeed made a companion by Seetha, who was being protected by her there.

Rama, who is endowed with long and well rounded arms, an illustrious man, who is large-chested, a man of great energy, an archer well known in the world, a man endowed with muscularity, a righteous minded man, a person of celebrity on earth, a man of eternal strength, a protector for himself and for others, while together with his brother Lakshmana, a man of high descent, a knower of doctrines of conduct and behavior, the killer of a stream of enemy forces, a man of inconceivable strength and valor, a venerable man and an annihilator of adversaries [enemies], has not been killed.” ayukta buddhi krityena sarva bhuuta virodhinaa | iyam prayuktaa raudrena maayaa maayaavidaa tvayi || 6-33-14 “Trickery has been hurled on you here by the cruel Ravana, a conjurer [wizard], who is perverse [corrupt] in thinking and action and an enemy of all beings.” shokas te vigatah sarvah kalyaanam tvaam upasthitam | dhruvam tvaam bhajate laksmiih priyam priiti karam shrinu || 6-33-15 “Your sorrow is (now) gone once for all.

  • Voyage Into Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's the Forest Of
    International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology Vol. 29, No. 9s, (2020), pp. 7031-7035 Voyage into Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s The Forest of Enchantments 1Krishna Chatur Sow Mondal, 2Dr. S. Lavanya 1Ph.D. Research Scholar, Department of English, K L (Deemed to be University), Andhra Pradesh, India. 2Associate Professor & Head, Department of English, K L (Deemed to be University), Andhra Pradesh, India. [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The Forest of Enchantments by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni is based on India’s most cherished lovelorn epic Ramayana. This novel depicts Ram’s banishment of fourteen years and Sita’s life thereafter from her perspective. It also presents Sita’s deep-seated desires--her love for Nature. She was indeed the daughter of Nature who could feel their anguish as well as amusement. The forced banishment indeed had its ups and downs which even Ram and Sita could not escape. This paper deals with Sita’s life, forest life. It also engages with the other characters in the periphery. But the chief interest lies in the fact that how Sita, staying within the society, highlights the loopholes of our society- how women, through the course of their life, are subjected to racial discrimination in their own house, their society, and, most importantly, how men try to control their lives. Sita’s voice further speaks about the art of balancing the public and the private life which is very essential for the entire human race to follow. How Sita understands and analyses the different facets of love also provide a lesson for life to the entire human race is analyzed in this paper.

  • Hermeneutics and Narrative Architecture in the Mahābhārata
    HERMENEUTICS AND NARRATIVE ARCHITECTURE IN THE MAHĀBHĀRATA Vishwa Adluri I. Introduction Appearing in the Pauṣyaparvan, the first narrative book of the Mahābhārata (Mbh), the story of Uttaṅka is baroque even by the Mbh’s standards. In this paper, I demonstrate that Uttaṅka is not just a character within the text, but operates at three distinct levels in the text: as a character in it, as its interpreter, and as someone who transcends the text altogether.1 Uttaṅka reappears toward the epic’s end in the Āśvamedhikaparvan as a character within the narrative, but what are we to make of his strange story in the Pauṣyaparvan? Appearing in this no-man’s land2 between the frame-narrative and the core epic, between 1 Uttaṅka is referred to in the Mbh in the following passages: 1. The Pauṣyaparvan describes the greatness of Uttaṅka (māhātmyam uttaṅkasyopavarṇitam; Mbh 1.2.72). 2. Veda has three students: the two kṣatriyas Janamejaya and Pauṣya, and Uttaṅka (Mbh 1.3.85-86). 3. The story of Uttaṅka appears in the Pauṣyaparvan from Mbh 1.3.86-1.3.195. 4. A reference to Takṣaka’s insult of Uttaṅka (uttaṅkasya vidhatsva; 1.46.25), although the story of Uttaṅka is not told here. 5. Janamejaya says to please Uttaṅka (uttaṅkasya priyaṁ; Mbh 1.46.41), he will avenge his father. 6. Story of Uttaṅka from Mbh 3.192.8-193.27. Story of Dhundhumāra, where Uttaṅka plays a decisive role (Mbh 3.194.1-195.39). 7. Second Uttaṅka narrative (Mbh 14.52.1-14.57.56). 2 Vyāsa, the epic’s composer, is also known as Kṛṣṇa Dvaipāyana, Kṛṣṇa of the island, as he was born on an island in the middle of a river.

  • 2019 - Sri Ranganji in Singapore Srimad Valmiki Ramayanam - First Day’S Upanyasam Feb 20 2019
    Jai SitaRam 2019 - Sri Ranganji in Singapore Srimad Valmiki Ramayanam - First day’s upanyasam Feb 20 2019 After a year’s gap my wife and myself were sitting in the upanyasam of Sri Ranganji. It was a great feeling akin to home-coming. ‘Valmiki Maharishi – Srimad Ramayanam – Sri Ranganji’ is a divine combination that is a God sent vehicle for experiencing Sri Ramachandra Prabhu in our hearts. Here are some of the gems from the first day’s upanyasam. Sri Ranganji started off recalling that Vibhishana Saranagathi had been experienced in the previous year’s pravachanam. In his devotional voice with a rich timbre he chanted the famous Charama Slokam of Ramayana viz., sakRid eva prapannaaya tavaasmi iti ca yaacate || abhayam sarva bhuutebhyo dadaami etad vratam mama | This sloka is the very heart of Ramayana. He mentioned that Viirya rasam is the very essence of Ramayana. Rama is often referred to as “Ranadheera”. But unlike the human history which relates ‘viiryam’ with destruction, Ramayana projects ‘viiryam’ as the key act of protection of the helpless people. Protection of those who had taken refuge in Rama is the ‘viiryam’ of Ramachandra Murthy (abhayam sarva bhuutebhyo dadaami). That divine Rama is lying in ‘dharba sayanam’ as a vratam towards getting Samudra Raja’s cooperation for getting the entire Vanara Sena across the 100 yojanas of ocean lying between the mainland and Lanka dweepam. Valmiki Maharishi uses a phrase “pratishishye mahodadheH” in the sloka describing this act of Sri Rama. Sri Ranganji gave an interesting interpretation to this phrase. He highlighted the ‘prati’ in ‘pratisishye’ as “facing the Samudra (ocean) another ocean called Lord Ramachandra was lying down”.

She deftly accomplishes the dual task of adhering to the originality of this ancient text and introducing a renewed perception through which this epic could be reconsidered as base for moral standings. The images, characters, facts, and ideals of Ramayan are deep-seated in Indian consciousness and Banerjee infuses with it the enchanting quality of her storytelling to recreate them from Sita’s perspective.

  • 6. the Search for Sita
    6. The Search for Sita If the mind is cleansed of all dirt, And lofty thoughts are nourished, Then to the wise would be visible, Entire Creation, resplendent with Divinity. Students, Embodiments of Love! Those who want to harvest Atmic Bliss should follow the example of Rama. Those people who want to find fulfilment in life must live by the ideals set by Sita. This is the message of the story of Rama and Sita, as depicted in the Ramayana. Ravana, who could not conquer his weakness for women, was the cause for the death of his sons, brothers and relatives. He was the cause for the destruction of Lanka. How did it all end? It ended in the destruction of Ravana and brought him disrepute that outlived his death. It was the evil desire of Ravana that brought his end. If only he had controlled his desire, his sons, brothers, and relatives would have survived and prospered. The selfishness of Ravana and his uncontrollable desire brought endless sorrow to his people. Surpanakha Arrives One day, while Rama and Sita were entering their hut in Panchavati, guarded by Lakshmana, a lady was seen walking toward them. Though Rama and Sita did not see her, the ever-watchful Lakshmana spotted her and asked, “Who are you?” The lady ig- nored him and went straight to Rama. Rama too asked the same question. The lady countered by asking a 66 Summer Showers in Brindavan 1996 question herself, “What does it matter to you as to who I am? By the way, who are you?” Rama then introduced Himself as the son of Dasaratha.
