Signed Ravan decided to abduct Sita. "Do not fight the brothers," warned Marichi," I have encountered them long ago while they were defending Vishwamitra's yagna. They possess powerful weapons. Use cunning." So Ravan came up with a plan that would force Ram to leave Sita unguarded in the forest. He ordered Marichi to take the form of a golden deer and make himself visible to Sita. Sure enough, on seeing the golden deer, Sita told Ram. "Fetch me that strange deer, dead or alive. Dead, I shall make clothes with its hide. Alive, I shall keep it as a pet." To please Sita, Ram picked up his bow and chased the deer. The deer, sometimes appearing, sometimes disappearing, managed to lure Ram deep into the woods. When Ram finally struck him with an arrow, Marichi screamed mimicking Ram's voice. "Help , Lakshman! Help." More ViewsOptionsMore From Sanjay Patel |
