Rajrishi Janak, Kushadhwaja, Sunaina, Chandrabhaga, Guru Vashisth, and the three queens reached Prayag. After knowing from Rishi Bharadwaj that Ram, Sita and Laxman moved to Chitrakoot, Janak and others continued their journey towards Chitrakoot.
In the meantime, Lord Shiva and Matha Parvati viewed all these happenings.
Shiva: Devi Parvati, What will happen now? No one can ever win Rajrishi Janak in the argument of dharm. Will Ram return back to Ayodhya? If it happens what about lok kalyan and ...
Parvati: Swami, have patience. The conversation between Rajrishi and Ram will shed light in the darkness of life for the people.
Shiva: Will people learn from it?😕
Parvati (with a smile): People will certainly learn the dharm but won't use it as usual. Do you still have hope that kaliyug people follow the dharm? 😉
Shiva (with a deep breath): Father and son-in-law is the only relation still holds quite well in bhoomi. Even that will be trashed today.
Parvati: Don't worry. Both won't cross their limit as they are aware in such cases the wheel of responsibility shifts.
Shiva:
Laxman while gathering the food for daily need, saw Janak and others approaching their house.
Laxman mind voice "Oh, no. Now it will be difficult situation for both Ram bhaiya and me. Hope Ram bhaiya solve the issue on behalf of me too otherwise I may utter any unnecessary words to Rajrishi"
Laxman (reaching the hut): Ram bhaiya...
Ram (who is teaching dharm to the nearby ashram kids): what happened Laxman?
Sita rushed to the spot from the hut.
Laxman: Rajrishi Janak is coming.
Laxman in his tension forget to mention about his mothers and others.
Sita: Pitashree is coming (with extreme happiness)
Ram: hmm... Lets go and welcome him.
Laxman: yes, bhaiya.
Sita told the ashram kids to come later as elders have come to their house as guest. She doesn't want the kids to see the arguments.
By the time, Janak and others all reached the place. Everyone greeted each other.
A silence covered the atmosphere for a while which is cleared by the guru Vashisth.
Guru: Ram, now you know about the current state of Ayodhya. Bharath moved to Nandigramam. Shatrughan is not well experienced to look after the administration which he is assigned to do.
Ram: Guru, your student can easily adapt any situation. You have taught us how to do the things without creating problems.
Guru mind voice "oh, he quoted my teaching, hereafter I can't say Shatrughan is not capable." He looked at Janak with a sign to enter in the conversation.
Janak: It is the duty and dharm for the elders to guide the younger ones.
Ram: Rajrishi, well said. It is our duty to be a good role model for the youngsters to follow.
Janak mind voice "oh, how I started and where it went 😲"
Janak: Maharaj Dhasarath helped many kings but still there are few small kingdoms which is jealous of the status of Ayodhya. They may attack the kingdom, which has to be tackled now.
Ram: As you rightly said pitashree helped many small kingdoms and now its time for them to prove their gratitude if such a situation arrives in Ayodhya.
Janak understood Ram means all kings who Dhasarath helped including Janak. It took some time for him to continue the talk.
Sunaina: Ram beta, sorry to interrupt ...
Ram: Matha, please tell me ...
Sunaina: Sita lived in palace all the time. It will be difficult for you to make her comfortable here and ...
Sita: Matha, ShriRam didn't force me to come with him. I requested him to take me along with him. I am just following your words matha.
Sunaina mind voice "I should have taught you not to interfere while elders were talking"
Ram: I have no rights to trouble others. If she wants also, she can go to Ayodhya or Mithila. I always want her to be happy.
Sita: Did I say, I will be happy without you?😡
Ram: No Sita, See you parents are hurt. For that only I am saying this.
Janak: Ram, atleast allow us to come and meet you all.
Ram: Oh Rajrishi, why are you pleading? Its your right to meet your daughter and son-in-laws. But I will be happy if you remember that we are here to lead a life of sanyas. There is no need for me to tell Rajrishi, that a King visiting sanyasi's often won't be fine.
Janak mind voice "Ram, can't you keep atleast one window open for me. I know already that it will be the tough time in my life"
Laxman mind voice " wow, Ram bhaiya, no one can beat you in words. Thank you so much. You saved me too😃"
Sunaina (with tears): Sita, we use to struggle a lot to make Urmila sleep in night. She used to play and work even in late nights. Now, she is sleeping continuously...
Sita: Matha, she worked all the time without rest. Now let her have some rest.
Laxman "Oh god, please save me. Both Rajrishi and Sunaina matha should not turn to me." He signed Ram bhaiya to put an end for the argument.
Ram: You people have travelled a long distance to reach here. Have something to eat, take rest before starting your journey again.
Kaushalya signed Kaikeyi to start the talk. She very well know that Kaikeyi's apology will be the brahmastra from their side.
To be continued...😊
