Chapter – 118– Sri Ramacharitha Manas –
Ayodhya Kanda– The villagers lamented on the separation from Rama, Devi Sita
and Lakshman
Rama along with Devi Janaki and Lakshman
proceeded to the woods after obtaining detailed information of the easiest
pathways from the villagers, but the men, women, children, and elderly people
were reluctant to leave Rama, followed him to a fair distance was send back by
the Lord with the comforting words. The people while returning homes lamented
on their fate, and blamed the King and the queen in their heart, they spoke to
one another in utter distress “The creator is heartless, difficult to perceive
his actions, he tainted the moon causing waning and waxing, wish-fulfilling
creepers/Kalpatharu considered as mere creepers, the ocean filled with the salt
waters. The creator destined these two charming princes to live in the woods,
he has chosen dense forest as an appropriate dwelling place for them, then
what’s the necessity to create luxuries and comforts in the world? He has destined the charming princes to walk
on the rough pathways of the forest, then what’s the need for the palanquin
and sophisticated vehicles? He has
destined these charming princes to take shelter under the shade of a tree, sleep
on the grass and leaves, then what’s the necessity to create fortresses and
luxurious chambers? If the Almighty Lord ordained these princes to live in the
forest, what’s the use of the creation of stunning palaces of milk-white?”
