hey ppl...heres a little abt sumitra

usually people know very less of the second queen of dasharatha- sumithra..as mentioned she was his second queen. She like Kaushalya was a gem f a woman..very virtuous and pious. She used to keep kaushalya as a role model and also took her to be an elder sister. But after the putrakameshti yagya ( pooja done for attaining children).. when each of the queens were given a portion of the payasa..they were supposed to bathe and have it..but when sumitra went to have her bath she was lost in thoughts .. she thought tht there was no use even if she bore a son as kausalya's son was sure to become the emperor..but this was just a small thought..no sooner she thought abt it an eagle took away her portion of the payasa ..thus kaikeyi and kausalya gave part of their payasa to sumitra tht is why lakshman is a part of ram and shatrughna a part of bharath bcuz the two parts were given by kaikeyi and kausalya who were their ctual mothers 😊

I have found interesting histories of characters from the Sagar World website...

When Ravana realized that his end was ordained at the hands of a son of Dashratha, he undertook severe penance. He came to know that the princess of Kaushal would beget a son who would kill him. She was to wed Dashratha five days later. To prove Brahma wrong, Ravana kidnapped Kaushalya, the princess of Kaushal.

Hi Mkerai

It's really a nice website hey! - hope they do the same with the new NDTV Ramayan - and that they soon get the Krishnaworld working - since he is my Isht.

About the Ravan kidnapping Kaushalya episode - it was pictured in the Ravan serial as well.

According to Shrimad Bhagvatam, Lord Vishnu was please with the tapasya of Dhara and Drona and granted them the boon of being his parents for three births :

Prishnigarbh - born to Prishni and Sutapa (during Swayabhuv Manvantar)

Vaman - born to Aditi and Kashyap

Krishna - born to Devaki and Vasudev

I'm not aware of Kaikeyi being born again as Devki - please tell me which scripture is this from - and also of that means that Kaikeyi is a reincarnation of dev-mata Aditi

Can't name the scripture but I heard that when Kekayi realized her fault she prayed Lord Vishnu for forgiveness. She wanted to undo the injustice done by her. She wanted one more chance to love Lord Vishnu as son. Lord Vishnu (Ram) granted her forgiveness.
