Chapter – 237– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda– The charming appearance and valor of the two princes, Rama and Lakshman has driven the Kings of neighboring countries in extreme anxiousness

 

Sage Yajjavalkya speaks “Oh! Mune, the grand Yajja arena was crowded with the people of Mithila, Kings, and princes from the neighboring countries, King’s men, and their families, eventually everyone occupied their seats allotted for them. Sage Vishwamithra with the two princes took a seat on the majestic throne arranged for the Kings, preceptors, Sages, and Rishis, and people of the highest ranks. King Janaka took a seat with the Sage Vishwamithra and his preceptors. The Kings and the princes from the neighboring countries were dejected to watch the two powerful youths with a lovely appearance, that aroused jealousy in them like the sunrise causes the stars to fade away. The people of Mithila sincerely wished Rama should bend the powerful bow of Lord Shiva so that Devi Janaki would attain the charming prince as her wedded husband. The crowd was too anxious, sincerely wished glories, fame, strength, and pride personified charming youth Rama should achieve Devi Janaki as a wedded wife so that the princes and kings of neighboring countries assembled represent arrogance and ignorance, would be defeated. The Kings and princes of the neighboring countries, swollen with pride spoke in mockery “It is impossible for Rama to bend the powerful bow of Lord Shiva or achieve Devi Sita as a wedded wife, there is no hope for it, in case if it happens, we should be ready to kill ourselves in a battlefield to achieve Devi Janaki.” The pious and noble souls, devotees of Lord Sri Hari watching the arrogance and ignorance of the princes assembled, began to speak in a soft tone.”
