Chapter - 17– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Uththara Kanda – Rama and younger brothers honored Kapeesa, Lankesha, and the Vanaras with an abundance of gifts

 

Lord Rama spoke “Oh! Dear Comrades, kindly return to your homes, contemplating upon me and worship me with steadfast devotion, knowing that I am that all-pervasive supreme Bhramam resides as a soul in the Jeeva, and return to your homes with the knowledge of Oneness-in-All.” All the Vanaras assumed the form of humans stood gazing at Lord Rama, they have become speechless, transported to a state of bliss. They all stood with folded hands, forgot to speak anything, without blinking their eyes. The compassionate Lord perceived the deep devotion of the Vanaras, he imparted the supreme knowledge of self, and the nature of destructible Prakrithi and indestructible Purusha thus removed the grief of separation of the Vanaras. They could not speak a word, they just stood gazing at the marvelous appearance of Lord Sri Ramachandra. Then, the merciful Lord distributed magnificent jewelry, garments, ornaments, etc.… which was readily carried by Bharatha. The compassionate Lord Rama offered the gifts to Sugrivah/Kapeesa, and Lakshman offered gifts to Lankesha/Vibheeshana at the instruction of the Lord. Finally, Rama noticed Angadha who was reluctant to move from his seat, the merciful Lord perceived the love of Angadha, does not invite him to receive the gifts.
