Uncomplicate
Sarama further consoled Sitā & said-Rām along
with his army of Vānaras, having crossed ocean, has reached southern shore
& is encamped there. Along with Laxman, he stands protected by troops
Rāvan hearing this news just left hurriedly &
is making deliberations with all his ministers to tackle this dire situation
While Sarama was talking, a terrific sound of
crashing kettle drums was heard from troops engaged in impending war. Listening
to it, Sarama in her sweet voice said-This frightful sound is indeed indicative
of preparations of war. Elephants in rut are being caparisoned for war, chariot
horses are being prepared & horsemen carrying darts are seen. Thousands of
soldiers equipped with armor are marching quickly hither & thither. Royal
highways are filled with warriors like a swift flowing sea making a roaring
sound. This means neither Rām nor any of his associates are harmed &
instead are preparing to attack Lankā
Hear sound of bells of elephants. ratting of
chariots. cry of neighing horses resembling flourish of trumpets. Here is the
bustle of demons, carrying uplifted weapons in their hands, following Rāvan.
This bustling activity is causing hair to stand erect through terror
A good fortune, which will bring your sorrow to an
end, awaits you. A peril has arrived for demons. The lotus eyed Rām, your
husband of unimaginable strength will kill Rāvan in battle and win you back
Rām along with Laxman will show their valor
against demons, like Indra the lord of celestials along with Vishnu the lord of
preservation & the annihilator of enemies exhibit their strength over
adversaries. Very soon, I shall see you, together with Rām , who has actually
arrived per your expectations. You will shed tears of joy on the bosom of
broad-chested Rām, re- united with you and holding you clasped to his breast.
Seeing his face, looking like a rising moon, you’ll renounce your tears born of
grief, like a female snake casts off its slough
Acclaimed by the high soled Rām, you will be so
happy like earth, endowed with crops, feels after onset of good rains
Seek refuge now in him!
Sitā smiled & wiped her tears of distress and
her eyes filled again with tears of joy!
What inspiring words of consolation by Sarama to
depressed Sitā. Intelligent analysis of what’s going around & with careful
selection of words, one can handle a distressed person & inspire him back
to be happy
What’s more human than experiencing grief, sadness
& sorrow. When we lose people, things or are not in control of situations,
we feel depressed but the key to fight & conquer it lies in our faith on
the Supreme Lord & surrendering to him for his guidance
The path that meets with spirituality is good in
such situations. Stop feeling sad & satisfy your inner warmth. Everything
is temporary except the Supreme Lord, so imbibe him to conquer phase of sadness
Uncomplicate & see the crystal of eternity
