water and sesamum seeds for propitiation of the soul

 Jai Sri Ram,

The moment Mandodary saw her lord's head she fainted in her grief and dropped to the ground, his other wives too sprang up and rushed to the spot, beating their bosom and weeping, spoke words from her soul unto the truth of velour of her spouse and crying for a mistake he made in identifying god as man, 

O My Lord, you took for a mere man Sri Hari himself, a veritable fire to consume the host of the demon race, did not adore him, my beloved spouse, you delight from birth in harming others yet Rama absorbed you in his own being, I BOW TO HIM, the immutable Brahma, 

My Lord, there is none else so gracious as the divine Sri Rama, who bestowed on you a state which is difficult even for the Yogis, all rejoiced to hear the mandatory words, women making lamentation Vibhishan approached them in wet eyes to console, Rama asked Laxman to support Vibhishan in his dismay on occasion, lord instructed for abandoning all sorrow and perform the funeral rites, obedience to Lord's command, strictly observing the scriptural ordinance with due regard to time and place,

After Offering to the deceased a handful of water and sesamum seeds for propitiation of the soul Mandodary and other queens returned to their place, recounting themselves the host of excellences of Sri Rama, 

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
