Sage Yajjavalkya speaks “ Oh! Mune, Rama and Lakshmana returned to the palace with a sense of anxiousness overruled for being late to present before the preceptor, they reverentially prostrated before the Sage and took a seat beside him. Sage Vishwamithra reminded them to perform the sun worship in the twilight, and they have spent the rest of the hours in the discussion on scriptures and Veda, narrating the glorious legends of the Supreme Lord, in this way, they have spent the remaining hours to bed. Eventually, Sage retired to his chamber, and the two brothers sincerely followed him, caressed the feet of the preceptor. The Sacchidhanandha Swaroopa Parmathma incarnated as the human set a remarkable example for the devotion to Guru who is none another a supreme Bhramam/Lord Bhrama, Lord, Vishnu, Lord Shiva, and the constant service to preceptor resembles the supreme Lord is the essence of wisdom and virtues are capable to remove the Thribidha Thapa/1) The grief caused by the epidemic, drought, famine and natural calamities/Adhi Dheivik 2) The grief caused by the attachment to material matters, richness, wealth, money, fame, possession, family, children, wife, relatives, and companions etc./Adhibhauthik 3) The grief caused by the aging, illnesses, and fear of death/Adhyathmik, and impurities of the mind/ Ego, lust, desire, anger, pride, jealousy, Ahamkara and Mamakara of the Jeeva. The preceptor inspires the disciple to take up austerities, Shamadhamadhi, vow, celibacy, Swadhyaya, Athmavichara, etc. to achieve serenity of mind, and get rid of sufferings and grief of worldly existence, and thereby repeated births. Sage Vishwamithra compassionately addressed the princes to return to their chambers and relax, so that they can participate in the upcoming Dhanur Yajja. Finally, the two of them returned to Rama’s chamber, Lakshman continued to serve his brother caressing his feet, Rama constantly insisted Lakshman to catch up some sleep so that they can attend the Yaga with great enthusiasm, it was after the third Yama of the night Lakshman unwillingly returned to his chamber to relax, contemplating upon the lotus feet of his brother.”
