last rites

many ppl doesnt agree with the words sitaji spoke to lakshmana at panchvati  There is no doubt that the accusations that she levelled against him that day burns the heart and made even Lakshmana to react strongly

Words tht were uttered in anger no doubt. But then, who is not guilty of that sin? Who can be exempted..., 'The words uttered in anger give a clue to the mind, for they slip off when the mind is off-guard.' That may be true in stray instances. But it cannot be the general rule and the guiding factor, always. Not certainly in the case of Sita and Lakshmana.

On the contrary, the better thing is to trust the words of the mind when it is calm relatively; when quietude of comparative terms rule over it.

wen hanumana came for the search for sitaji and asked her for the mssg look wht message she had for Lakshmana...sita said  convey my message to lakshmana  "'Lakshmana, it is your duty to come to my rescue.' There are no ifs and buts and the all-knowing, yet teasing 'even ifs' are totally absent here. '.' Realise that 'it is my duty to rush to her rescue, for I was the one who was protecting her under the orders of Rama.'You were the one who were standing guard at the behest of Rama, before I sent you in search of him. 'idai kOththu vem sirai vIdu.' You, my guard, my protector owe a duty to me to
come to my rescue and take me out of this prison.

"Rama owes a duty to himself and therefore he has to reach here.Lakshmana has the order of Rama to guard me and therefore he owes me a duty to come to my rescue. No. Not simply because of that. There is something else that demands him to do this. He is my son. He owes a duty to his mother. Listen to her."

Also let him know, Hanuman. I won't live a minute more than a month from now. Make this known to Lakshmana in particular..' My penance would come to an end in a period of a month.' if he does not turn up here within that time, ',' let him not come here at all. Let him go to the banks of the Ganges. 'Let him perform my last rites there in the banks of Ganges, with his palms of the colour of lotus petals.

If they do not come within the specified time limit, let them go back to Ayodhya and let Lakshmana perform my last rites in the banks of Ganges, for I would not be living any more.
That speaks volumes of the love that she has for Lakshmana as their own child. Who else can perform the last rites, but the son? there was no request in her words ...only the authority tht she has over lakshmana the undying and pure love tht she has for lakshmana tht she wants him to perform her last rites...Clap
