Here's another interesting story from the Ramayan...

Ram wouldn't die as Hanuman wouldn't allow Yama (God of Death) to enter Ayodhya to claim Ram. To divert Hanuman's attention Ram dropped his ring through a crack in the floor and asked Hanuman to fetch it back for him. Going down, Hanuman reached the land of serpents and asked the King for Ram's ring. The king showed Hanuman a vault filled with rings all of which were Ram's. He told a shocked Hanuman that when in the cycle of time a Ram is to die he drops a ring down the crack so that a Hanuman can be diverted from his guard.

Hey bhagwaan toh kya during the satyug that will be coming aftr this kalyug, Ramayan will be having the same chain of events? 😲 How I wished for not having Sita's banishment in the coming satyug 😭 I know, am silly 🤪😆

@charvi as Gowri said I know Hanuman dragged Mandodari, but if needed SKR can show Hanuman dragging Sulochana too 😆, even Meghnad's yajna is stopped.

And coming to your analysis charvi why you want to give pain because you suffered. That's the world. I suffered so everyone has to suffer. I am sad so let me make everyone else sad. Why do you think this sad, over the top melodramas where the leading lady cries and cries get audience. The sadistic mentality people have get audience for such soaps. But what we don't understand is the more we make other suffer we are not gaining anything. We will also suffer and live in perpetual fear someone will take our control.

We need to understand one who induces fear is emotionally weaker. The only way to bring them down is attack their emotions, hurt their ego with words. You will anyway suffer. But the second option protects your self respect. Once again Janak's words " Lift the Dhanush and prove your Bhakthi". I am waiting to see Janaki doing that attack on Ravan. Verbal attack.

Gowri good analysis with the theme mistakes. This is where I say we should understand epics so that we don't repeat those mistakes. If we understand why certain things happened, in our life we will be more cautious.

This is what Devdutt Pattanaik wrote in his book Sita.

We all did.
But we learn a lot from her banishment. It shows the ideal woman that Sita Ma is. She didn't protest. She walks away; for her, Ram was her world, and her God, what he said she will do.

I have always admired the way some adults can sit down with kids and play at their level and completely enjoy it too.It has always seemed to be a difficult proposition to rein in your strength and knowledge and interact with them at a level they can accept.Isn't it what Hari and Lakshmi have done?Hari created the world as well as maya and then he came as Ram and Krishna not only to participate in his Maya but also followed the same rules as us humans.Ram went through the whole human cycle of thoughts ,action and emotions just as anyof us.We with our weaknesses and failings unknowingly put them through numerous tests and trials, all of which they accept with infinite love and compassion.We may not even acknowledge them when things are going our way until our life hits a snag,but they don't change.Today When Shivji and Parvati were talking these jumbled thoughts were running through my mind.Hope it is lucid enough to be understood.

Yes Savitha. Gods came to us to teach us showing everything through actions, not through preaching.
