wah kya episode tha!
It's truly Siya ke Rama
The unveiling of Rama's character through Sita's eyes
Sita and Rama are really two of a kind - with similar values and ideals
For a couple to be truly happy with each other, they must at core be identical
When I say core, I mean they must share the same value set, and that's when they will have genuine respect and love for each other
So if one believes in kindness and goodness, the other doesn't, they will always have strife
Of course, if both are Bunty and Bubbly type, scoundrels, they would together be happy too, as they share the same value set
A couple can be different in their external attributes, but at soul they must be same
So one can be outgoing, and the other introvert, one may be rich and the other poor, one may be educated and the other not so much, one may be sophisticated and the other rustic, but these are external! Internally both have to value the same things
And we see it so strongly in Rama and Sita, of course in their case, they are similar in all respects and hence made for each other.
What Sita wishes for, are all the qualities that Rama possesses
And so Sita's wait for her soulmate is over, though she doesn't probably realise it yet! As she waits for news from vishwamitras ashram, her heart beats for the young raghuvanshi whose welfare is of utmost importance to her
Janak of course is unaware and is still waiting for his Sita's jeevan sathi! How fortunate is he that his and Sita's choice will converge
So while on one hand we saw Pratiksha as first Vishwamitra waited for Tadaka vadh, and Sita waited for news of Rama's victory
On the other hand we saw two facets of pratishodh
For Rama the pratishodh - revenge was not an emotion he held on to! To kill Tadaka was required to protect the innocent, he personally holds no anger in his heart, and is above all malice
So generous is he that he must give her a respectful Antim sanskar, and is so empathetic and the will not take away the right of her sons to bid her the final farewell
This is what makes him the Purshottam - he is above all pettiness, and meanness, above negative feelings of revenge and anger.
And his heart is filled with true love and empathy
It is this empathy that instantly kills all feeling of pratishodh in mareech, but ignites it further in Subahu
This is why they say, that end of the day it is our attitude that makes our karma!
Wonderful episode, very sci-fi in the way the battle was shown! But very deep and valueable in the message of love
After death it is so pointless to cling on to pratishodh and gussa and all the negativity!
If we can imbibe even 20% of the lessons we are learning from Rama's philosophy, our lives will be so much happier and peaceful!
