Jai Sri Ram
Ram screams Sita's name. He cries. Ram, Luv and Kush fall on the floor calling out to Sita. Valmiki, who treated Sita as his daughter, is also sad.
Valmiki - Daughter.
Ram cries - Do not leave me, Site. Ram is incomplete without you.
He pleads to mother Earth.
Ram - Dharti Ma, you cannot do this. Return my Sita to me.
He gets angry.
Ram - Do not test my patience. For Sita, I will destroy the whole world. (Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh are looking at Ram.) So long, everybody has seen Ram's love. Do not provoke my anger. If you do not answer me, then I will destroy the whole Earth. A single arrow of mine will destroy the entire biosphere. There will be such huge flames of fire that even the gods in heaven will be frightened.
Ram reads some mantra. A bow and an arrow come in his hand. Everybody is shocked. Ram is ready to shoot the arrow.
Gods cry - Protect us, Prabhu. Protect us.
Brahma - Please stop Ram, please stop. You are so mighty that a single arrow of yours can cause many periods of dissolution. But, is your anger justified? Will your anger not destroy the order of the entire creation? (Valmiki nods in agreement.) You have no reason to do this, Sri Ram because you were never separate from Sita and you will never be separate from her. Sita is going to her destination. Soon, she will reach your supreme abode via Naag-lok and you will meet her there. Then why this anger?
Ram gives up anger and does not shoot the arrow. He is crying remembering Sita.
I was expecting Ram's anger to be shown in more effective manner.
Vashishth - Ram, what all Maharshi Valmiki did not try to make you and Sita meet? But even he did not succeed. Ram, this is destiny. We must accept it.
Valmiki - Maharshi is right, king. Respecting what is written in destiny, please accept your sons Luv and Kush.
Ram spreads his arms towards his sons. Luv and Kush look at each other for a moment and then go to Ram. Ram hugs them.
Kiya antatah Ram ne putron ko swikar
Kitna kiya vilamb prabhu dene mein adhikar
Tab putron ko kanthh lagaya
Vida le gayi jab Mahamaya
Sukh ke pichhe kitni bhir
Jan jan ke nainon mein neer
Luv and Kush wear royal clothes and go to Sita's statue with Ram. Though, for a short moment, at least they were shown in royal clothes.
Ma ki pratima ke nikat aa gaye rajkumar
Tyagmayi nij maat ko sadar rahe nihar
Garv se rahe nihar
Luv and Kush offer flowers to Sita's statue.
Pushpon jaise haath mein pushpon ka uphaar
Naman maat Sri ko push charan dono rajkumar
Sita's sisters and the rajmatas look at Luv and Kush lovingly. Luv and Kush touch Kaushalya's feet.
Putra aur pita ka ye milan alaukik hai
Sita kare mano is milan ki aarti
Teen teen mataon ki, teen teen dadion ki
Ek tak drishti do kumaron ko niharti
Luv, Kush Kaushalya ka charan vandana karein
Daadi ma, dularon par snehashish vaarti
Is avasar par shraddha bhaav bharkar
Atma sabhi ki Sita ko pukarti
It is shown that Valmiki is back to writing. The narrator explains how the story moved forward.
Narrator - The very thought of Ram-rajya fills the heart with spiritual joy. In Ram-rajya, there was no limit to people's happines. Lion and deer dranks water on the same ghat. Nobody had any fear. Nobody had any misery. With time, all of Sri Ram's mothers left their mortal coil. A time came when Sri Ram left the kingdom for his and his brothers' sons. He gave Takshila to Bharat's son Taksh, Pushkalavati to Pushkal, and Karupath to the sons of Laxman. A time came when Kaal set his eyes on Ayodhya.
Kaal comes to Ayodhya disguised as a rishi.
Laxman - Pranam, rishivar. Let me know what I can do for you?
Kaal - Mahabali Laxman, I am a messenger of highly glorious Maharshi Atibal.
Laxman - Please wait, rishivar. I will tell bhaiya about your arrival.
Laxman goes inside. There is evil smile on Kaal's face.š²
Laxman - Bhaiya, a highly resplendant mahatma wants to meet you. He says that he is Maharshi Atibal's messenger.
Ram - Laxman, bring him with respect.
Laxman brings Kaal inside. Ram and Sumant bow to Kaal.
Ram - Mahamuni, you are welcome. Please tell the message, which you have brought.
Kaal - The message is highly confidential. Therefore, I will tell you the message only when we are alone. Therefore, you have to take a decision that while we are talking, if somebody overhears us (he looks at Laxman for a moment) or even sees us talking, then you will have to give him death sentence.
Ram - Laxman, replace the sentry at the gate and be there yourself. I have taken a vow that if anybody overhears us or even sees us talking, I will give him death sentence.
Laxman - As you wish, Maharaj.
Laxman goes out.
Ram - Sumant ji.
Sumant - As you wish, Maharaj.
Sumant also goes out. Now Ram and Kaal are alone.
Ram - Now please say what you want to say.
Kaal - Prabhu, I am your son. When Hiranyagarbh was created, then with the help of your Maya, you created me first of all. I am Kaal. Destroying everybody is my duty.
Kaal comes to his real form. He bows to Ram.
Kaal - O Master of the entire cosmos, accept the obeisances from Kaal.
Raam raising his hand in the gesture of giving blessings.
Kaal continues - Parampita Brahma has sent me with the message that O, the master of the three worlds Vishnu, the purpose for which you decided to come on Earth is now over. The age, which you had decided for this incarnation of yours is over. Therefore it is time for you to go back to your supreme abode. But if you wish to stay here for more time, then it is your wish.
Ram - Maha Kaal, I myself thought of you so that you can come here. That is why you came here. I want to go back to my abode. Please give this message to Brahma ji.
Maharshi Durvasa comes. (Expect him to come on such occasions.š”)
Laxman - I, Laxman, the son of Dashrath, bow to Maharshi Durvasa's feet.
Durvasa - My blessings to you. I want to meet Sri Ramchandra ji. Give him my message.
Laxman - Lord, I am at your service. Let me know the purpose of my visit. I will do that.
Durvasa (angrily) - I have to meet Sri Ramchandra ji now itself. Do only this much that go and let him know that I have come.
Laxman - Forgive me, Prabhu. Bhaiya is busy in some special task. Therefore, you will have to wait for some time.
Durvasa shouts - You are asking me to wait, foolish Laxman? How dare you stop me from going inside? You do not know my power. If I Durvasa, get angry and pronounce a curse, then at this very moment, together with Raghukul, the entire Ayodhya will be destroyed.
Laxman - No no, rishivar. (Thinks)If Ayodhya can be saved by my death, then my death is justified.
Laxman - Please do not get angry. I know your strength well. I will go and tell Bhaiya about your arrival.
(It is real greatness to take such a big decision and that too in such a short time.š)
(If I had been in Laxman's place, I would have shot Durvasa before he could get time to pronounce a curse.š)
Laxman goes to Ram. Kaal is there, who disappears when he sees Laxman.
Laxman - Bhaiya.
Ram is very sad on seeing his dear brother Laxman because of his vow of giving capital punishment to anybody who sees Ram and Kaal talking.
Tomorrow is the last episode.š
