Chapter – 159– Sri Ramacharitha Manas –
Ayodhya Kanda– Devi Kausalya details the incident to Bharatha, and regretting not leaving her Prana/vital air at the separation of Rama
Devi Kausalya spoke softly “Oh! Dear son,
the Lord of Raghu abandoned the palace, leaving all his ornaments and stately
pleasure, attired in a saffron robe, left the palace with no grief or joy. He has
accepted the life of a hermit gracefully. He left the palace cheerfully,
comforted everyone with his pleasing smile and sweet words, he was neither
happy nor sad while leaving to the forest. Devi Sita who is chaste and devoted at
the lotus feet of Rama followed him to the woods. Lakshman who cannot be without
Rama rushed to follow him, even though he was told to remain in the palace,
thus Rama, Lakshman, and Devi Sita left to the woods. I have neither accompanied
them to woods nor did not shed my mortal coil, all that happened before my
eyes, even though I could not abandon my Prana. I am ashamed for my love to
Rama, I did not leave my Prana watching him leaving to woods, I am ashamed of
myself, the Lord of Raghu Rama should not have a mother like me, but your
father knows how to live and die, I think my heart is harder than the rock that
is why I am still bearing Prana in this body.”
