bHARATHA TAKES OATH

bHARATHA GOT BDEPRESSED BY kOUSALYAS WORDS.He prays her with folded hands and explains thus. He was not aware of these developments.He adores and respects Rama very much.If he had encouraged these developments he would acquire all the crimes.He would forget what all he learnt from teachers.HE would get punishment that is due if a person does not pay for the services of a servant.HE would get the punishment that is due for Rajadrohi.If a king does not properly utilise the taxes for the benifit of the public, he would incur the punishment. BHaratha would get that punishment.If one does yagnaas and does not gift to BRAHMINS, THAT CRIME ALSO HE WOULD GET PUNISHMENT. fOR THIS also bharatha was ready.Aperson gets punished if he runs away from war. Bharatha was ready to suffer that punishment. He would forego the pious observation of return of to Ayoidhya and his enthronement ,if he really had any bad intentions.

He would suffer what a person suffers if he does not share good food with DEVATHAS OR GUESTS.H e would acquire that punishment which is due if one does wrong to a teacher or a friend.He would suffer the pangs of such a person who would reveal the secrets of his closest friend told in secrecy believing him.He would suffer the punishment that is due if a person does not give food to wife, children and servants but eats all by himself. He would not have children.He would become insane and roam about aimlesslyalong the globe.He would beg. He would lose his propriety and righteousness.All his earnings would be lost to a thief.

He would recieve punishment which is due for aperson who puts flames to houses,,mithradrohi and gurudrohi.He is apt to bepunishment as if he ahd not looked after his parents.

He would acquire a big family,become poor and suffer fromill health.He would always be unhappy.He would become a criminal and being afraid of punishment from king , live life abominably.

Kousalya pacifies bharatha and tells him that he should live like Lakshmana in a right path.
