Waise Valmiki Ramayana doesn't even has Lakshman rekha but that is there in other sources and in a flashback of Ram Charit Manas

True. Lakshman just left after being repeatedly chided by Seeta. She said that he wants Ram to die so that he can have Seeta for himself....


And here today people come up with stories like Lakshman never saw Seeta's face


That's why I said long back. The original stories are beautiful but very brutal. The writers during Islamic Era made it simpler and more protagonist oriented. I guess to ensure that invaders don't use our scriptures to mock us since they had limited Sanskrit knowledge

Yes Sita did accuse Lakshman of lusting for her and she wanted deer meat that's why she sent Ram after the deer....

Valmiki Ramayana doesn't have Agni Pareeksha. After finding her back, Ram discards her and asks her to gp wherever she wants as he can't accept a woman like her.


Sita is sad at it and decides to suicide by Atmadah in Agni, but then she was so pure that Agni couldn't burn her and then Agni Dev come to Ram ji and testified for her.




And nowhere was a man considered impure that time, VR is clear that Ramji often spent time and enjoyed with Dasis(and we all know what would have happened in that time) even when Sita ji was with him.


It was only when he was in forest that he didn't have access


P.S. Seeta Agni Pareeksha is in Yudhh Kand not in Uttara Kand so this part isn't even interpolation. The Ramopakhyana in Mahabharata is all more demeaning


Bold; Such double standards in ancient times , kings can marry / make the queens of defeated kings as their dasis and here he's saying that he cannot be wirh a womna because she stayed at someone else's palace as a captive and allegedly had relations with him....then why did he even spend so much time to find Sita?

Can't even say what double standards was. Ram actually said that he can't believe that Ravan would have been able to resist himself after being with her for so long. It's such a double standard that multiple women in life is a status symbol and even 2 men in their lives make women characterless....(even if she thinks of another man)

@bold he answers that. By abducting his wife Ravan had put a blot on his power and family name, that the Ikshawaku Vanshis Can't even protect their women, now by defeating Ravan and freeing Seeta, he has cleansed his family name of that blot. He can't have such a women as his wife and it's better Sita goes to Bharat, Lakshman, Sugreev, Vibhishan or whomsoever she wishes to


Thing is though that Valmiki didn't support Ram's stance here. He mentions that Seeta didn't deserve to hear what she had to

Bold; Good that Valmiki didn't support Ram's stand in this....

The og Gopi Bahu was replaced one of the reasons was her dressing and lifestyle be not like Gopi. & people were against it


ITV shows toxic and wrong stuffs, actors then suffer from viewers toxicity

Hain? As per my knowledge she was replaced because she wanted to do jhalak and sitara didnt allow. And even if your logic is right, She was replaced by Devoleena was even more modern ? đŸ€ŁđŸ€Ș

Never even heard Gia being in news for modern un gopiesque dressing. 😆


@bold: True. Latest actor to join this club will be Avinash Mishra.
