Sri Sita Navami today

 Jai Sri Ram,

Sri Sita Navami today, appearance day of Devi Sita, the Adi Shakti, the mystic power of Sri Rama, embodiment of mysticism,

A day to revere the icon of austere penance that fairly participated in the great Yajna of Sri Rama to kill numerous demons of Jambudweep, 

Know the Truth of Goddess Sita that manifest through a hidden sankalp and reach the Yajna of then meritorious king Janaka to oblige him through her gracious incarnation,

Time has revealed the truth of incarnation of Adi Shakti in the name of goddess Sita, and ages have facilitate this event in many forms, I bow down to the lotus feet of Goddess Sita that embodiment of austere penance, who spent her life for a hidden cause to obliged herself in the service of Lord Rama,

May Lord bless all,

brought me in consideration of money

 Jai Sri Ram,

The king was grieved at heart to hear these words, felt dismayed and could not utter a word, with his hands to his forehead and closing eyes began to mourn like grief personified,

An inauspicious thing has happened at an auspicious moment and I am doomed by putting trust in a woman like a striving Yogi who has been undone by nescience at a time when his practice of Yoga was just going to bear fruit in the form of realization,

King moaned within himself, seeing this queen sulked within her heart and said, IS BHARATA NOT YOUR SON, have you brought me in consideration of money, Kaikeyi uttered most pungent words as through applying salt to a burn,

King said to himself that she has smitten me in the most vital part, said to queen that Bharata and Rama are my two eyes, I vouch for it, calling Sankara as my witness,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

And for second boon I ask

 Jai Sri Ram,

I have now understood the whole mystery, said the king with a smile, You are fond of angry by nature, kept the boon but never asked for them, pray do not level a false charge against me, 

You might have asked four instead of two, it is always the rule of the Raghu Race, one's plighted words must be redeemed even at the cost of one's life, 

Over and above this I have unwittingly sworn by Rama, having thus bound him with his words, queen Said, hear my beloved lord, that which pleases my heart, vouchsafe to me for one boon the installation of Bharata as the prince regent of Ayodhya,

And for second boon I ask with joined palms, pray accomplish my desire, my lord, let Rama dwell in the woods for fourteen years in the garb of a hermit and wholly detached from the world,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

you promised me a couple of boons

 Jai Sri Ram,

Thinking her reconciled the king spoke again in soft and winning ascents his whole thrilling over emotion, tomorrow i installing Rama as the prince regent, thereby, put on a festive garb, 

Queen's heart was hard, hard to cracked by words, agony was disguised by her under the cloak of a smile, king was unable to detect her wily designs, although king was skilled in statesmanship,

Again, with a greater show of false affection she smillingly said with a graceful movement of her face and eyes, 

You do repeat  the word ASK ask, but never actually give anything, you promised me a couple of boons but I am yet doubtful about my getting them, 

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

again and again

 Jai Sri Ram,

Said the king again and again, tell me the cause of your anger, who is it, my dear, that has harmed you, who is there with a head to spar and who that courted death, tell me what pauper I should exalt to the position of king, and what monarch I should banish from the kingdom, 

I could slay even an immortal, your enemy, of what account, then men and women, who are mere worms as it were, you know my disposition, my mind is enamored of your face, my people and my family, and all that I possess including my life are all at your disposal,

If I tell you anything insincerely, I should be guilty of falsely swearing by Rama a hundred times, Ask whatever pleases your mind, distinguish within yourself between an opportunity and inopportune hour and give up, this unbecoming attire at once,

On hearing this and considering the great oath, the dull witted queen smilingly arose and began to put on her ornaments, it seemed as if a huntress was laying the trap at the sight of a deer,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

As the King touched her,

 Jai Sri Ram,

The king was taken aback, he heard of the sulking room, his feet refused to advance on account of fear, he under whose powerful arm the lord of celestials dwelt secure and whose goodwill was even sought by all rulers of men stunned at the news of his wife's anger,

Look at the mighty power of sexual love, even those who have endured the blows of a spear, thunderbolt or sword have been overcome with the flower shafts of Rati's lord, 

The king timidly approached his beloved queen and was terribly distressed to perceive her condition, was laying on the floor in course attire cast away all the ornaments of her person,

Drawing close to her the king asked in soft ascents, Why are you angry, my soul delight, As the King touched her, why are you angry, MY QUEEN, she threw it aside and lashed upon him a furious glance like an enraged serpent, 

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

At eventide

 Jai Sri Ram,

The queen is now under the sway of the mind of Manthara, and makes up her mind in tune with delusion as prescribed by her servant for an indifferent reason, 

Having thus hatched her fierce design against the queen the watch said, Betake yourself to the sulking room, manage the whole affair discreetly, and be not too steady to believe, 

Thus lavishing every term of endearment on her maidservant, Kaikeyi retired to the sulking room, discord was the seed and Manthara, the rain, evil mind served as a ground to sprout those two boons Kind own to the queen,

At eventide the king joyfully visited Kaikeyi's palace, it took as if love incarnate had called on harshness personified,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
