after the self sacrifice of vedavathi...ravan will collect the ash ...store in a box and will bring to lanka..but shukracharya senses some trouble and advises ravan to discard the box...as per his orders ravan will discard the box...into sea...the box then reaches the mithila where janak will be performing the yaga...then she will become his daughter...what actually valmiki tried to portray...Is there any significance in ravan bringing the ash of vedavathi
