How can any paen describe the daughter of Janak‘s great emotional delight? Even so, she<br />
did not engage in direct conversation to an unknown man. But taking the ring in her hand<br />
and questioning it, she said:<br />
MUDRE SANTI SA-LAKSHMANA-HA KUSHLIN-HA SRI RAAM PAADAA-HA<br />
SUKHAM<br />
SANTI SWAAMINI MAA VIDHEHI VIDHURAM CHETO-ANAYAA CHINTAYAA<br />
ENAAM VYAAHAR MEITHILAADHIP-SUTE NAAMAANTARE-NAA-DHUNAA<br />
RAAM-STAWAD-VIRHEN KANKAN-PADAM HYASYEI CHIRAM DATTAVAAN<br />
―O ring! Tell me quickly. Is Sri Raamchandraji together with Laxman well?‖<br />
―Yes, daughter if Meithil,‖ as if the ring replied. ―Due to separation from you, the<br />
emaciated Sri Raam instead of wearing me in his hand was wearing me as a jewel round<br />
his hand. I have now come to you.‖<br />
Sitaaji looked into jewel in the ring. The place where Sri Raam‘s name was inscribed,<br />
there she saw the form of Raam visible. And in the jewel her reflection was as if standing<br />
smiling at Sri Raam. For a moment, in the pair of Sita Raam‘s vision, Bhagvati Sitaa<br />
became engrossed!<br />
In a moment she became aware and began to think: ―O! Instead of wearing the ring in his<br />
finger, my Lord was wearing on his hand? Why, has he become so emaciated in<br />
separation from me? And now as a remembrance in his hand, even this ring has not<br />
remained. He will now become even fickle!‖<br />
―But would that have happened?‖ Sitaaji had a doubt.<br />
―Why not?‖ Sitaaji‘s pure heart replied. ―Why does separation from my beloved makes<br />
even the moon rays feel burn like fired coals? Why does the touch of lotus flowers<br />
become unbearable like sparks from fire? How come the beauty of the moon instead of<br />
giving pleasure to the eyes seems raw as flash of lightening?The cool mild scented air,<br />
why does it feel like forest fire? And why do the tender things of the world seem harsh?<br />
When the separation from the dear gives me this expeience, then the message from this<br />
ring must be true.‖<br />
―But O ring!‖ Sitaaji said after a pause. ―Now go quickly to the beloved of us both Sri<br />
Raam and at his feet announce my message. You have already heard my heart‘s cries. It<br />
is not possible to endure that affliction anymore. That is all you have to relate to our Lord<br />
of life.‖<br />
―Yes my Mother!‖ in between the voice of Mahaavir Maaruti was heard by pensive<br />
Sitaaji. ―Just as the ring understands the grief of your heart, this child‘s heart<br />
comprehends it multi fold. And more so understands Raam who resides in my heart. How<br />
can that anguish be hidden from him?‖<br />
Bhagvati Sitaaji now looked directly at Hanumaanji. And denoting the monkey form<br />
Mahaavir, she said: ―O strong one! I have recognised you by the praises you said of the<br />
Lord, sitting in the tree. You are truly fortunate. To this day, my Lord had no friendship<br />
with a monkey, but now there is no doubt left in my mind. Tell me O king of the<br />
monkeys. Together with brother Laxman, is the Arya son well?‖<br />
Speaking Arya son, her heart filled with emotions. The tears flowing from her eyes were<br />
sanctifying the ring in her hand. Despite wanting to talk she was unable to express any<br />
words.<br />
