The Story of Ramayana

by Maharshi Valmiki
India

Long ago, Dasharatha, the wise king of Ayodhya of Sarayu, India

had three wives. Though the King had three wives, he didn’t have
4 | Page
any children with them. The Chief priest Vasishta advised the king
to make fire sacrifice to obtain a blessing from the gods. After the
gods were pleased, one of them appeared out of the flame and
handed him a pot full of nectar.

The god told the king to share the nectar with his three queens
namely Kausalya, Kaikeye, and Sumitra. While the nectar had
been shared, the three queens gave birth to sons: Kausalya had
Rama; Kaikeye had Bharatha; and Sumitra had twins Lakshmana
and Shatrughna. A sage took the boys out to train them in
archery. In a neighboring city, the ruler's daughter was named
Sita. When it was time for Sita to choose her bridegroom, at a
ceremony called a Swayamvara, the princes were asked to string
a giant bow. No one else could even lift the bow, but as Rama
bent it, he did not only string it but also broke it into two. Sita
indicated that she chose Rama as her husband by putting a
garland around his neck.

The disappointed suitors were watching. King Dasharatha,

Rama's father, decided it was time to give his throne to his eldest
son Rama and retired to the forest to seek moksha. Everyone
seems pleased. This plan fulfilled the rules of dharma because an
eldest son should rule and, if a son can take over one's
responsibilities, one's last years may be spent in a search for
moksha.

In addition, everyone loved Rama. However, Rama's stepmother,

the king's second wife, was not pleased. She wanted her son,
Bharata, to rule. Because of an oath Dasharatha had made to her
years before, she got the king to agree to banish Rama for
fourteen years and to crown Bharata even though the king, on
bended knee, begged her not to demand such things. Broken-
hearted, the devastated king could not face Rama with the news
that Kaikeyi must tell him. Rama, always obedient, was as
content to go into banishment in the forest as to be crowned king.

Sita convinced Rama that she would always be at his side and his
brother Lakshmana also begged to accompany them. Rama, Sita,
and Lakshmana set out to the forest. Bharata, whose mother's
evil plot had won him the throne, was very upset when he found
out what had happened. Not for a moment he did consider
breaking the rules of dharma and becoming king in Rama's place.
He went to Rama's forest retreat and begged Rama to return and
rule, but Rama refused. "We must obey father," Rama says.
Bharata then took Rama's sandals saying, "I will put these on the
throne, and every day I shall place the fruits of my work at the feet
of my Lord." Embracing Rama, he took the sandals and returned
to Ayodhya. Years passed and Rama, Sita, and Lakshmana were
very happy in the forest. Rama and Lakshmana destroyed the
rakshasas (evil creatures) who disturbed the sages in their
meditations.

One day a rakshasa princess named Shurpanakha tried to

seduce Rama, and Lakshmana wounded her and drove her
away. She returned to her brother Ravana, the ten-headed ruler
5 | Page
 of Lanka (Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon), and told her brother, who
is always attracted to beautiful women, about lovely Sita. Ravana
devised a plan to abduct Sita. He sent a magical golden deer
which Sita desired Rama to hunt. A long time had passed, but
Rama didn’t return. Thus, Lakshmana went off to find his brother.

Before leaving Sita, Lakshmana drew a protective circle around

Sita and warned her that she would be safe if she would stay
within the circle. As they went off, Ravana, who could change his
shape, appeared as a holy man begging alms. The moment Sita
stepped outside the circle to give him food, Ravana grabbed her
and carried her off to his kingdom in Lanka. Rama was broken-
hearted when he returned to the empty hut and could not find
Sita. A band of monkeys led by Hanuman offered to help him find
Sita. Ravana carried Sita to his palace in Lanka, but he could not
force her to be his wife.

So, he put her in a grove and alternately sweet-talked her and

threatened her in an attempt to get her to agree to marry him. Sita
would not even look at him but thought only of her beloved Rama.
Hanuman, the general of the monkey band could fly since his
father was the wind, and he flew to Lanka and found Sita in the
grove, comforted her, and told her Rama would come soon and
save her. Ravana's men captured Hanuman, and Ravana ordered
them to wrap Hanuman's tail in cloth and to set it on fire. With his
tail burning, Hanuman hopped from house-top to house-top,
setting Lanka a fire. He then flew back to Rama to tell him where
Sita was.

Rama, Lakshmana, and the monkey army built a causeway from

the tip of India crossing over to Lanka. A mighty battle took place.
Rama killed several of Ravana's brothers and then Rama
confronted ten-headed Ravana. Rama finally killed Ravana and
freed Sita. After Sita gained her freedom from Ravana, she
proved her purity through the trial by fire. Then, they returned to
Ayodhya and Rama became the king.
