Chapter – 37– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Aranya Kanda– Kamadeva take good control over women hence they are the dearest companion of him

 

Lord Rama continues lamenting over the separation from Devi Sita “Lord Manmatha did not stop torturing me even after knowing that I am suffering from the pain of separation from my beloved consort, the swarm of honey bees, herds of elephants, and deer, the beautiful spring season, and the cool breeze carrying the rich fragrance of flowers, did not stop meddling with me. Lord Kamadeva chasing me with his warriors, knowing that I am with my brother Lakshman, grieving over the separation from my beloved consort. The beautiful creepers are coiled in the huge tree as if taking shelter in it and give out a marvelous appearance. The plantain and palm trees standing straight out watching the vast sky are fascinating sight, trees are loaded with beautiful alluring flowers or rich fragrance, like the warriors of Kamadeva are all prepared for the battle against me, the chirping of birds of various species, trumpeting of elephants, the sounds of cuckoos, Swan, peacock, Chakora, herons, mules, camels, pigeons, swans, quails, etc. represents the soldiers of Kamadeva. The mountains are the chariots of the Manmatha, the sounds of the animals, trumpets of elephants are his kettledrums, the cool breeze are his ministers, the chirping of birds are the Vandhigana/singing in praise of him, these give out the appearance of Chathurangasena/four-fold army of Manmatha. Oh! Lakshman, the Jeeva who is won over the cupid of Manmatha are praised highly, the Jeeva who remain calm at the sight of the cupid arrows are men with strict vows and austerities, the cupid arrows take full control on women, hence the women are his strongest companion.”
