Chapter – 214– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Ayodhya Kanda– Bharatha and the people of Ayodhya journeying to Chitrakoot

 

Bharatha and the people of Ayodhya arrived on the riverbank of Yamuna, looked at the beautiful dark cloud water currents of the river that resembles the attractive limbs of Rama, pushed them to the ocean of grief from the separation of Rama, which could be relieved from the wisdom/Bhramajjanam/Athmavidhya. That day, Bharatha, and the people of Ayodhya halted on the riverbank of Yamuna and all of them were lodged into the comfortable shelter homes of their choices.  In the dark hours of the night, there were several ferries arrived on the riverbank, thus in the early daybreak, all the people boarded on the ferries and crossed the river, everyone was highly pleased with Nishadharaja Guha and his tribal people for their relentless services. The two brothers after reaching on the other side of the riverbank, took ablutions, and performed the morning rite, and followed Guha to the Chitrakoot. The chariots, palanquin, carts, vehicles, horses, elephants were arranged in a splendid manner, all those royal family members and preceptors on the forefront, followed by Bharatha and Shathrughna barefoot, attired in simple clothes and adorned in minimum jewels, further they were accompanied by ministers, sons of ministers, warriors, people of Ayodhya, etc. contemplating upon the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra and Devi Sita and Lakshman. They have offered humble salutations to the places where Rama, Lakshman, and Devi Sita taken shelter or paused their journey while traveling to Chitrakoot.
