Maheswara then told Raama.Raamaa!due to our luck,you could kill Raavana.Entire universe is now free of the fear of Raavana.Now ,you can go back to Ayodhya and live with Bharatha,Kousalya,Kaikeyi and Sumithra.Make your friends happy.Be throned as Ikshvaaku king and prosper.You perform Aswamedhayaagam and receive fame and accolades.Then come back to Vaikuntam.Raamaa!your father,Dasaradha has come to meet you.Because of you he is saved from saying lies and achieved Indralokam.Both the brothers,salute your father.Raama and Lakshmana saluted their father.Dasaradha hugged Raama with affection and made him sit in his lap.He said.Raamaa!pleasures in Swargam and treatment by Deities are not greater than the happiness I am finding in seeing you.You filfilled your oath of livng in the forest for fourteen years like a hermit.You have killed your enemy.I am very happy about it.Iam still hurt by the way Kaikeyi talked to you at the time of your leaving Ayodhya for the woods.But now ,by hugging you and embracing you,all my sadness is gone and I am relieved of the pain of your loss.I recently came to know that deities have planned all this so that Raavana could be killed.Those ,who see you being throned and live under your leadership are really blessed.Meet Bharatha,who adores you.He is a good charactered person.You did a great feat by killing Raavana and all deities are happy about your achievement.Reach Ayodhya soon,get throned as king and live a long,prosperous life along with your brothers. Then,Raama saluted his father and made a request.Father!forgive Kaikeyi and Bharatha.You,then,said,I am foregoing you and your son.Please take back those words.See that your curse does not adversely affect them.Dasaradha agreed to forgive them.
