in krittivassi ramayana its mentioned tht one who starves observes celibacy and doesnt sleeps for 14 years will be be able to slay meghnand and lakshman didnt eat or slept for 14 years maybe tht was the cosmic plan to ask for 14 years for exile

donno which one is relevant and any other theories in this regard????😳

ya there are many but didn't seem relavent for me...they were like some guesses...
Some say Kaikeyi thought that in 14yrs Bharath might produce a child and he might grow and the thrown might be secured for them???????/
Another says that Kaikeyi asked for whole life...but later reduced to 14yrs???
One more...12yrs exile+2yrs safe side...????????
14yrs required for Rama to purify himself from sins...(I didn't get this...why should he purify himself he was always pure)???????
Shiva gave curse of 14yrs exile as Rama broke his bow(punishment)????????????
But another one which seemed relavant for me!
It says Ram might be around some 25-26yrs of age then so if he remains for 14yrs in forest and leads a celibate life(he will be around 40yrs by the end)his desire for material life will end i.e children etc.Embarrassed
I guess there is something significant with that 14yrs...coz see even pandavas were exiled for 14yrs...12yrs of aranya vaas and 2yrs of agnaat vaas...

chalo ek anokha adhaya from my side on lakhanji...

its the test of lakhanji taken from the folk tales...

the story is something like this... once narad ji tested lakshmanji's devotion and dedication towards his brother..it happened during the exile period wen ram and lakshman were living peacefully in suburbs of chitrakoot and lord Vishnu was praising the selfless service of lakshmanji''' Naradji grew curios and decided to test it he went in the forest where a yaksha was residing in form of a holy lion'.he was the owner of the forest.naradji asked the holy lion (yajna ) to refuse lakshman to give water'. here...ram was thirsty and he asked lakshman to fetch some water for him lakshman went near the pond and was about to drew some water but immediately the holy lion came there and refused to give water to him and said "u cant kill me as right now im in the territory of ur brother so I m in raam sharan."...lakshman replied yes i know and my brother had ordered me not to kill any animals but i need the water and tell me what do u want in return the lion said "I m hungry for a long time bring a animal for me"...lakshman replied "i cant as right now other animals are too in raam sharan i cant do any harm to them" lion said "in such case I cant help u"..
to this lakshman replied ".but right now i need the water from this lake and if its condition in exchange of water... i offer myself to u ''''give me the water and u can eat me...the lion consented and give the water lakshman took the water in the cottage and said to his brother that i m sorry i cant serve u any longer plz take care of urself and my sister in law'' ram asked the reason behind then lakshman said i have an agreement with the lion in exchange of water i have offfered myself ram understood and gave him some instructions
lakshman went to the lion and said here i m here'u can fullfill your wish...the lion came near and sniffed him then left without harming him naradji who was watching the whole incident was utterly suprised he asked the lion y did u spared lakshman lion replied i m king of the forest not a vulture u know i dont feed on dead person...lakshman wasnt breathing he was dead how can i eat him and he went away naradji then looked at lakshmanji who was smiling there...
naradji was confused he asked lakshman u r alive then y did lion said u were dead'..lakshman said my brother had ordered me that not to recite his name wen I m present before lion he said not to remember him at this point'..and wen ram isnt there in my heart my mind I m dead like ''.naradji was surprised lakshman smiled and said lord if u r satisfied with ur test can I go and serve my brother...

and the lake is known as lakshman kund its situated in MP (the folktale is popular there)...😳

thts it😳

@arti...Thank you...😊
Very nice...😳

From - Narasimhapriyaa(Vaishnava Mthly Magazine)

PARVATHI, assuming the form of a parrot, intending to test the determination
of LAKSHMANA, questions him ; and LAKSHMANA, who was the master of his senses was happy to reply to her queries.

Parvathi:When a women full of fire and a man like a pot of ghee co - exist, whose mind not waver?

Lakshman:The mind of a man born of noble parentage, will forever be steadfast without any wavering.

Parvathi:Flowers, fruits and young women are beautiful. Whose mind not waver on seeing all the three together?

Lakshman:For one who has conquered his senses, and who regards other's wives as his own mother, even though he may be moving everywhere, his mind will not waver.

Parvathi:Whose mind will not waver when he sees the gentle - smiling woman bedecked with all ornaments, whose face resembles the lotus and who radiates the fragrance of a lotus?

Lakshman:One who is happy to serve at the lotus - feet of Mother Goddess and who always controles his mind, his mind will never waver.

Parvathi:Whose mind will not waver on seeing a beautiful lady with a slim waist and one whose husband is away and stays alone in the hermitage.

Lakshman:A pious minded person, who knows his brother's wife, the good natured daughter of King JANAKA as the Consort of Lord VISHNU, his mind will not waver.

Parvathi:KAUSIKA the great sage, who was the very embodiment of penance and determination, yielded on seeing the heavenly MENAKA, giving up his hard -earned penance . How does not your mind waver ?

Lakshman:Leaving my Wife, I have come to the forest with the sole purpose of serving my brother. So my mind does not waver.

Parvathi:How is it that your great mind is so steadfast, when there may be a momentary wavering when one often sees one's sister, mother or daughter alone?

Lakshman:I am seeing only the anklets and not seeing the armlets and other ornaments of SITA and am always meditating on Lord RAMA. Who can perturb my mind?

Lakshman continues:Just as a devotee who worship SIVA along with his Conort GAURI everday, can harbour no evil thoughts, so too, I am steadfast.

Lakshman:(praises RAMA)One who has the mark of the Conch on his left arm and the mark of the Discus on his right arm and one who wears the urdhava pundra marks on his forehead, for him there is no wavering.

Lakshman continues:One who is mind is filled by thoughts of the holy CAUVERY , SETU and GANGES by the good teacing of the acharya -s and whose mind constantly remembers the Lord of SRI, for a such a person there is no wavering.

Lakshman:One whose mind shines with the ASHTAKSHARA and DVAYA MANTRA along with CHARAMA SLOKA, for him there is no wavering.

Parvati Says :
I bow down to you, who have conquered your senses. I wanted to test you,having heard the story about your determination .

Phalasruti
One who reads or listens to this dialogue between PARVATI and LAKSHMANA,will have all his desires fulfilled by the grace of Lord RAGHAVA.
" A blessed soul who conquers his senses alone will shine in splendour ".
