RamarpaNam-86


File 86.

Dated: July 27th, 2012.


Jai Sri Ram.

Sita Parinayam.

iyam siitaa mama sutaa saha dharma carii tava |
pratiicCha ca enaam bhadram te paaNim gRihNiiSva paaNinaa ||


King Janaka said these words to Rama, at the time of His marriage with Sita.


These two for all practical purposes are in-separable. But up to the conclusion of their marriage, were they not separate, one may ask. This separation is for the sake of killing RavaNa, KumbakarNa and a willful one manifest with an act of kindness or mercy on their part.


Sriman NarayaNa means Sri Devi and NarayaNa are united without let up in time, place or perpetuity.

That is ensured by the ‘’mathup’’ prathyayam. Nitya yoge mathup is the standard phrase which ensures their inseparable nature. Now coming back to Kamba RamayaN:


As Rama walked through the streets of Mithila, Kambar explains that


Cuckoos sang sweetly. Peacocks spread their plume making dance gestures. Swan like bird, Hamsa pakshi walked in gait, a welcome note for Rama on their part.


The fragrance of flowers, honey-bees choicest nectar, brilliance of gold and the sweetness derived from pregnant words of poetry, all these rolled in Sita, She standing in the patio, excelled in each one of them.


Who is quoted as an epitome of all beauty, sanctity and serenity, when required to be compared to choicest collection, could she find a better object than herself? No. Therefore


Even the Gods in heaven, Ramba, Urvasi, felt be littled after the birth of Sita whose beauty minusculed theirs.


People desiring to have a glance at Her without a whisker would need a pair of eyes that do not wink.


Such an embodiment of beauty called Sita was sighted by Rama. Sita too returned one of hers’.  No words were exchanged, as silence prevails over speech at the reunion of the separated.


As the Two exchanged their glance,

We pray unto Them to be glanced.

Distancing the distance in us at once;

Patented until then and not hence.
