Chapter – 57– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – Devi Sati’s grief & Lord Mahadeva’s Tapasya

Sage Yajjavalkya speaks “Devi Sati understood that the compassionate Lord Shambhu have understood all that happened in the forest, she felt terribly remorseful for hiding the truth from Lord Shiva, and regretted being mischievous, accepted that the women are flickering and ignorant by nature. Generally, the trust and love shared with the married couple is like the milk added with the water in it, can be separated although it’s not visible, but definitely, it would spoil the real taste of the milk. Devi Sati become inconsolable thinking of her grave sin committed on Lord Shambhu, and her grief was beyond description. Devi Sati remembered the kindness of the supreme Lord Mahadeva who is the ocean of mercy did not utter a single world or criticized openly or hurt her for the mistake committed. Devi Sati could sense that Lord Mahadeva has abandoned her heartily as his consort, that put her in a deep sense of grief. The excessive guilt and shame did not let her speak or argue with him, all that agonies mounted in heart resembled blazing fire torn apart her peace. Lord Shiva could make out the unbearable grief of Devi Sati, he sincerely wanted to alleviate her sorrow and get rid of the mounting grief, and divert her mind from constant anxiousness, hence he began to narrate beautiful stories from various scriptures so that it could wave off her grief. Thus, the couple reached Mount Kailash, Lord Mahadeva remembered his vow, took a seat on Padmasana posture under the Banyan tree, contemplating upon the supreme Bhramam immersed in a transcendental state for several years.”
