Chapter – 120– Sri Ramacharitha Manas –
Ayodhya Kanda– The women lamenting over the separation from Rama, Lakshman and
Devi Sita
The villagers assembled were shed tears in
grief, and spoke: “The two charming princes and the young and beautiful princess
are too delicate to walk through the rough pathways on the forest, how shall
they conduct journey through the impassable roads and mountains in the woods?”
They became restless thinking about the danger involved in the woods, shed
tears, and grieved like the female Chakravaha birds at the hours of dusk. The
women spoke in extreme grief “These two charming princes and princess are too delicate;
the Earth may get pained as our hearts while they walk with their red lotus-like soft and supple feet on the harsh pathways. If the Lord of the Universe
ordained them to live in the woods, why can’t he spread the pathways of these
princes with the flowers of rich fragrance? Oh! Friend, we can pray to
that Almighty Lord to give us a boon for the safety and welfare of them, and
protect them like eyeballs.” The villagers who did not make it, failed to
witness the Lord and behold the beauty of Ram, Lakshman, and Devi Sita, became heartbroken,
rushed to the place, and enquired anxiously “Where did they go? How far they
would have traveled?” The strong ones flee to the woods to get a glimpse of the
Lord returned triumphantly, as they have achieved the liberation from the grief
of worldly existence.
