What was the scene in Lanka sabha today. It felt like the Ayodhya sabha after Sita banishment. Sulo speaks the words , Sita will not speak , but will make everyone feel in her absence. And Kausalya will have to speak to Ram what Mandodari spoke today. If Sita is wrong, the system of Ayodhya is wrong.

Now let me go into the deep analysis why I am telling this. Wealth of Lanka Sulo rescues power of Lanka and send her away. When has the story started in Lanka. As I said earlier when Kaikasi crossed the line of maryada to lure Vishravass. When did the story change in Lanka. When Surpi married vidyutjeeva a man who decided to use her against his brother. Surpi felt she was always a bait for men and from there her problems started. She goes to Ram. Tries to use the same method as her mother. Get smacked. End result people of Lanka wanted to kill her, but Sulo the wealth protects her. And when Sulo is told to be guilty finally the silent Dharma speaks. If she is guilty, you are also guilty for bringing another man's wife.

Note the point in Lanka the protection is happening through wealth and not through dharma. When protection happens through wealth and not dharma, that system has problem as wealth only follows or rather reacts never acts. Whereas dharma acts. And this reaction will eventually lead to destruction only.

Now come to Ayodhya. Kausalya is wealth and she is eldest. She is supposed to be the protector. What does she protect, the existing traditions. When does story starts in Ayodhya when Dasrath brings Kaikeyi giving a bond to her father that her son will become the king. Kaikeyi thinks Dasrath loves her. Sumitra the knowledge also comes. But she knows why Dasrath married her, she accepts it and remains content with it. Knowledge knows the purpose of marriage. Purpose of marriage is hidden from power and wealth it protects all this funda. When does the story change in Ayodhya. When Shanta crosses the line of maryada. Wealth makes noise, but resign to the fate as she is also happy getting a son.

Just like surpi, when power Kaikeyi comes to know the truth of her marriage she reacts sending Ayodhya to gloom. But unlike Lanka where both Kaikasi and Surpi are destructive power with a mute dharma in Mandodari, in Ayodhya the dharma of Sumitra and the power Mandavi handled by Sita manages the damage. Sita the dharma acts in Ayodhya to rescue it from complete destruction. Without Ram and Sita fate of Ayodhya would be same as that of Lanka.

Now the daughter of Ayodhya needs justice. For that again Dharma will act. Or rather Ram and Sita will act. And finally wealth will have to speak or rather Kausalya will have to speak. Because wealth only reacts. So to ensure it reacts dharma has to create right circumstances for it. When Dharma or knowledge protects, that is constructive and long lasting. Because it wont react, it will only act according to the circumstances.

Coming to knowledge when Sugreev entrusted Ram his defense he gave Ram half knowledge. He should have told Ram about how much alike he and Bali looks. If you are asking defense you will have to trust your defense completely. Give it complete information. Second Ram asks Sugreev to go in front. If you trust God you have to act, surrendering your action to him completely. Not half minded. Then he will ensure your defense happens. God is your defense. You need to understand that. Action or attack you have to do. Battle you have to fight. That's the message of Ram sending Sugreev to Bali. That's the message of Krishna being the charioteer of Arjun. God cannot do his part correctly if you don't do your part correctly. Understand it.

Great analysis, Sruthi di! Yes, Dharma has to act, to protect the state, otherwise the constant acting of wealth and power crosses the limit, and turns into Adharma. And, God can not help us when we do not help ourselves. There is a really interesting story that illustrates this point.

Once, a poor man heard about a lottery in the news. He decided to take part in it, and prayed at the church everyday with one wish- to win the lottery and vanquish his poverty. When the day of the result came, the man was shocked to see that a rich businessman got the lucky prize. He went back to the church and cried, "Why do You only favor the rich, My Lord? Are you that heartless."

Suddenly a sound came from the crucified statue of Jesus Christ, "My Son, how could you win, if you didn't take a lottery ticket."

That story has stayed with me ever since I have read it.

A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada had explained the relationship between Sita and Ravan, and it was a symbolism of a sort, so I am sharing it with all of you.

"The Goddess of Fortune is called Chanchala. Chanchala means that she is not steady. Ravana took away Lakshmi, Sitaji, to his place and instead of being happy by the grace of Lakshmi, his family and his kingdom were vanquished. So Lakshmi in the house of Ravana is Chanchala, or not steady. The Ravana class of men want Lakshmi only, without her husband, Narayana [or Ramachandra]. Therefore they become unsteady by Lakshmiji. And so materialistic persons find fault on the part of Fortune. Of course, in the spiritual sky Lakshmi is fixed in the service of the Lord, and in spite of her being the Goddess of Fortune, she cannot be happy without the grace of the Lord."

Here is the website, and it has the full Ramayan explained by the Swamiji, and it is really good!

i know we are not allowed to discuss other films and shows here.. but i can't help bringing up this here. but 'sairat' definitely deserves to be discussed. i was only reminded of our discussions.. everything that we have discussed on this thread.
the movie unlike other regional movies is being released with subtitles coz of its popularity. i also heard that its gonna be dubbed and released in other languages (i ges they might have done)

but if any of you get a chance to watch it please do that.

and "sairaat" means wild or free.

i am thinking of writing a blog on this today. i'll share the link here.
