Chapter – 11– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Kishkindha Kanda– Rama pacifies Devi Thara – Sugrivah performs the final rite of Vali

 

Vali contemplating upon the marvelous form of Rama left his mortal coil effortlessly like the elephant knows little about the flower garland slipped out of its neck, thus Vali attained the abode of supreme Lord Rama. The people of Kishkindha were in utter dismay watching the miserable state of Devi Thara who was grieving the death of her beloved husband Vali, she approached the mortal coil of Vali with disheveled hair, and wept bitterly. The Lord Raghu saw Devi Thara in utter distress, he imparted the supreme knowledge and removed her delusion, soon Devi Thara got out of grief, “Oh! Devi, the body is made up of five essential elements, Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Ether, the soul is eternal, the body is perishable. Oh! Devi, why are lamenting over the destructible nature of body and material matters?” Devi Thara got rid of agony, and prostrated before the lotus feet of Rama, and sought the boon of intense devotion at his feet. Lord Mahadeva speaks “Oh! Devi Uma, the supreme Lord Ramachandra makes the Jeeva dance like the puppets, Rama ordered Sugrivah to perform the final rites of Vali, further instructed Lakshman to perform the crowning ceremony of Sugrivah as the King of Kishkindha, soon everyone departed bowing head before the supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra”.
