Today Janak gave something to Sita that was more or less prophetic. If it comes to give Aginpareeksha for her self respect she has to give it.
If you look Janak gave wise counsel to his daughter. To understand that people in Ayodhya doesnt know her from birth, she also doesnt know them from birth. So if by any chance she is hurt by something , try to understand the situation, use intelligence and overcome it.
Make them your own and make effort to be one among them. But he clearly highlighted one thing. Never lose self -respect. That clearly means you should never be a door mat in your sasural and being a door mat is not agnipareeksha. That is just crying buckets.
Real Agnipareeksha is when question is raised at your character, on your sanskaar, walk the hard path and prove what your character is, what your sanskaar is. Sometimes you will have to go against the traditions, against the socially set norms, some times you will have to question. But if it is at your self respect do it.
Have courage to believe in your values and sanskaar and prove that you are right. if you walk the hard path God will be with you. Lord Agni himself vouch for Sita's chastity. Krishna comes for Panchali. The reason is because when it came to their self respect this women were not willing to take it hands down. They proved themselves right for the world to see.
So have courage. Never compromise on values and your self respect. Stand up for your rights when it matters most. Because if you dont stand up for yourself, you cannot fight for anyone else.
