Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Kishkindha Kanda – Rama explains the reason for Vali’s defeat on the battlefield

 


Chapter – 9– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Kishkindha Kanda– Rama explains the reason for Vali’s defeat on the battlefield

 

Sugrivah fought against Vali with all his strength, ultimately the powers vested in him were getting weakened, he lost courage and was alarmed, Rama who was watching the fight between the two brothers did not wait too long, shot an arrow aiming at the chest of Vali. The arrow pierced the heart of Vali, made him withered in pain, and fallen on the ground with a loud thud. Vali was shrunken in pain, saw the supreme Lord Raghu before him. He made an effort to sit before him, witnessed the marvelous appearance of Lord Rama who has a dark cloud complexion, wielded on bow and arrow, adorned in matted hair locks, eyes resemble red lotus flower petals. Vali fixed his gaze at the marvelous appearance and contemplated upon the lotus feet of Rama, and felt that he has achieved the reward of his life. Vali’s heart was overflowing love and devotion for Rama, his lips were sealed due to immense grief, though made an attempt to speak “Oh! Prabho, Oh! Sri Ramachandra, you have personified on the Earth to reinstate the Dharma, Oh! Prabho, you have killed me like a hunter for your associate Sugrivah. Oh! Prabho, what was that mistake I have committed to getting killed?” Lord Rama spoke “Oh! Vali, you have got killed for your deceitfulness.  You have set an evil eye on Sugrivah’s wife, who should be considered as your brother’s wife, or sister, or daughter, or daughter-in-law. There is no sin in killing a person who sets evil eyes on the stranger woman. Oh! Fool, you were so arrogant, you did not pay attention to the advice of your devoted wife Devi Thara. You know that your brother Sugrivah has taken shelter in me, he believed in the strength of my arm, yet you have approached him arrogantly to kill him.”
