"Mere bhaagya main itne anaratho ka nimmit bana kyun likha tha," Kayekai.
In one of my earlier post I said how much can we blame Manthara for everything that happened ? On one side we say/believe that things are predestined, it is also believed that destiny chooses its mediums. It can be a person, a situation or a place. The seeds for every momentous event are laid much before the actual event. In fact it is a chain of events that leads to the final act. Like our plays and stories where every event leads to the climax. In case of Ramayan the seeds to Ram's vanvaas were laid even before he was born that is when Dussharat killed Shravan Kumar, I believe the curse of Shravan's parents sealed Ram's Vanvaas. Kayekai became the medium through which the curse was materialised. On looking at the bigger picture she also became a medium of Ravan's death. However she also became the medium of Dussharat's death, Urmil's solitude, Bharat's grief. She and Manthara were merely pawns in destiny's design. In a way they acted as a bridge and helped Vishnu to fulfil his purpose of descending earth and yet they are disliked. You'll find people naming their daughter Sumitra and Kaoshalya but never Kayekai. My question is how wrong or right people are in blaming Manathara and Kayekai for Ram's vanvaas or Dussharat's death ?
That being said, if we really say that it was all destiny then aren't we simply trying to blame destiny for our wrong actions. Won't people like Kayekai and Manathara simply find a escape route by blaming everything on destiny ? Every Time you do something wrong you can simply justify your action by saying it was bound to happen.
The truth is neither we can blame everything to destiny nor we can deny that destiny works in its mysterious ways. I'm sure half my life will go in figuring out what was destined and what wasn't. 😊
