It feels like I have not yet understood Raghunandan- Sita

Beauty of today's epi was Sita's realization that she is seeing a different Raghunandan in Ayodhya. Raghunandan who is loved by Ayodhya vasis like anything. Their swami, their father, brother you name it Ram is everything for Ayodhya vasis. The way they lined up to see him, the way Ram went to hug some of them showed his respect for his praja and their respect for Ram. For Ram his family came after his praja.
To be frank this is where better halves of many reformers suffer or has to take great personal sacrifice. Because their husbands are devoted to society, its betterment and their family come last to them sometimes. We see that not only in reformers but also in doctors and soldiers. They love their family, but the call of their duty is much more than that.

So whenever you are going to be a better half of a socially conscious man, a duty bound man understand that , the family more or less has to be managed by you. It is true even if you are going to be the better half of a man in power which includes politics, CEO etc... because one way or the other society demands them.
So it is worthwhile to ask yourself are you willing to take up that responsibility. Can you shoulder the home and run it efficiently. Can you do it without bickering or speaking ill about their father to kids. Can you understand that it is because of you, he will be able to manage it in social front.

Many women who marry men in power or doctors feels disillusioned after sometime as they dont get their husband's personal time. And they bicker, create problems even when their better half respects them.

And actually such bickering women affect men also indirectly, as they are always drawn into conflicts with their loyalty to duty and to wife.

If you see any great men like Mahatama Gandhi, they dont have a good personal life. Kasturba Gandhi had to take a lot of pain because of the freedom struggle he was involved in.

So think. Path to glory is no easy task. Power has more thorns than roses. Only if you are willing to step on those thorns start the journey.

OK a beautiful episode .
I loved your take shruthi di
Reminds me of dkdm when lakshmi mata asks Vishnu ji that what is her place in his heart , she should be given full space
He replies in half of my heart mahadev resides and so she finds a place in the other half with his bhakths .
To which she becomes angry and demands the whole of the half heart .
Later she realizes the real essence .

I interpreted it in a different way when sita said this , she reflected every human's feelings nobody can understand god completely its different for some and others see him/her differently

@charvi a true bhakt understand God. And when do you become true bhakt, when you become a tool for him to create his master craft.
Yes you have to be a good tool, God cannot create master craft with blunt tools. That's why Prahalad is always termed as Hari's greatest Bhakt. he became the medium through narasimha was created to kill hiranyakasyapu.

I knew u would take this 😉 😆
Great post on a beautiful episode 👏
What shud I add when u have said so much... 😳

SiRa's monologues gave me goosebumps...

Again it was an honest confession on sita's part that she didn't knew ram totally... It was a different person...

I relate this to RAM's journey in mithila... Now its sita's journey..

He understood what made sita what she is- bhumija,janaki,vaidehi,maithili and lastly Sita..

Now sita has seen ram as jamai, as husband, as brother ( the tym bharat got unconscious) Now it's to view him as a potential king and a son...

Yaar kya parallel hai... 👏

I really appreciate the way they are writing this show...

Otherwise mera record hai, I don't post on a show more than a month... 😆 they ruin it and I vanish...

A pertinent post Shruthi. Marriage is a continuous process ,you do get to learn new things about your partner throughout your life. We can either like or dislike them as how it relates to us and affects us as a couple and family, but it is imperative to accept these parts as a part of the whole package deal😉{and not go on a cribbing marathon} ... It definitely makes our lives more comfortable and enjoyable😛.
Like you I am not even going to think about 'uttar kand' now. I have always revered Ram and Sita and loved Krishna...but this serial is making me love them both as individuals and as a couple.
Every scene in today's episode was well crafted and well executed.Sita and Ram's monologues,the Aarti scene and The grihapravesh scene.I have a feeling that the trio of mothers {once Kaikeyi is over her snits}are going to prove to be Sita's strongest support system.Love the idea.

Shruthi lovely take again.
But here I would like to see it from woman pov.
When the woman holds a higher positron salary etc.
Hmm women might bicker for lack of personal time.
But How about the man. His family?
Being an Indian and being a woman I think we all know that men in our country still need to grow up.
In our country younger men older women marriage is still not easily accepted. Women with better jobs is not even thought of event in few cases.
Men will not bicker..They will simply not accept such a woman as partner in the first place.
I am generalizing of course.
Marriage is a two way thing.
It has to be managed by both.
Totally my pov.
No offence to men.

@jayashree thanks for bringing up this point. Yes I agree to you on many counts. What about women with higher salary, what if women is working, what about her independence etc..they are very valid points.
Whatever I have wrote above I guess I need to put a disclaimer also. Applicable only in cases where the man respects a woman's individuality, acknowledges her contribution to his cause. When I write such posts understand that I have Ram in mind.
A man who took the Shiv Dhanush to prove his worthiness for marrying a woman of great quality. The proof was not whether she was eligible for him, but he was eligible for her. A man who crossed the ocean and fought a war for her sake. A man who eyes glistens as if his soul is restored when Hanuman places the choodamani as proof of Sita being alive in his hands.
Yes he had obligations, he had conflicts, but the fact cannot be denied is that Ram loved Sita with all his heart.
But in general what you said is true. I hear daily we don't want girls working in IT sector. As a woman working in IT sector it pains me a lot. I hear girls being asked to compromise on their choices because they are 25+. And today when girls are demanding boys parents are not taking it lightly. They say today's girls are demanding. And believe me if I am in the vicinity of any such remarks I make sure I give it back quite nicely. Telling if you can demand homely, fair, tall who can bring this much dowry, of course don't get offended when a girl asks what is the boy's salary, whether he has any family obligations like unmarried sisters. When you are thinking of a slave for your house, don't get offended when she says she has no interest to be one being an unpaid servant of your house.
Then I hear another thing. See you talk to your cousin or relative. It is not right to reject boys like this. And I say when 10 years back I myself was adamant on what type of a man I will marry and was willing to wait for the one, whom am I to tell another one to compromise on her dreams. Why should she. There will be someone who meets her criteria, ask the man to think of someone who is his equal and not eye someone who is much better than him.

@savitha marriage has its ups and down. Yes it is a package comes with its share of happiness and pain. If we accept them mutually then we will be in a better position to deal with our life.

Marriage is supposed to be between two families. In vast Indian homes mostly everything is dumped on the women.
One point I would to touch is children.
Within a year irrespective of the wife working or otherwise. it is expected a child will grace the household soon.
Though this mind set is slowly changing. I still find it prevalent.
