Bharatha&guhas dialogue

Guha was praising Lakshmana in front of Bharatha.Lakshmana did not sleep the entire night to save Rama.Guha requested Lakshmana to sleep on the bed.They would look after Ramas welfare for the night.But Lakshmana did not oblige.His reply was that how could he sleep peacefully when his brother was in such trouble.He woke up the entire night.Next day morning they wore jatas and started to cross the Ganges.Hearing these words Bharatha fainted.Sathrughna started weeping seeing Bharathas plight.Their mothers came running.Kousalya hugged Bharatha.She enquired if he was not well.All their lives depended on his welfare now.Did he hear any bad news regarding Rama and Lakshmana. She was anxious to know.Bharatha got up and consoled her.

Bharatha wanted Guha to tell him some more details regarding Ramas stay that night.He wanted to know where he slept and what did he eat that night.Guha replied that he brought many food items but RAMA did not even look at them. He said that they only give but never take anything from others. He drank Ganga water and slept .Water was brought to him by Lakshmana.Lakshmana brought grass to make a crude bed for Rama and Lakshamana and laid it.Still that grass was there only. Bharatha showed the place for his mothers.

Bharatha started Lamenting on Ramas plight. King of kings ,who has to enjoy all the material benifits in this world ,had to sleep on the floor in the woods.Is it a dream or a truth.Seetha had to face so many troubles.Daughter of Janaka mahaaraju and daughter inlaw of Dasaradha had to lie on a bed of grass.Bharatha started observing those grass and was saying thus. Rama could not have slept properly and would turned and tussled .That was why grass blades were rumpled.Seetha might have slept with her ornaments because gold powder could be seen minutely there.Her silk saree might have tangled in the grass.Because silk threads could be seen here and there.

What a turn of fate!RAMA and Seetha were suffering so much!There was no one as cursed as he in this entire world. Lakshma was blessed because he could accompany Rama in time of need. Seetha was also blessed because she too followed her husband to the forest.

Rama went far off from them.They had to bring him nearer.Though Rama as not in the country, others kings have not invaded because they knew Ramas power.Bharatha is deciding that from then on wards he too would lead a life of a sage.

He would fulfill the act supposed to be done by Rama and live in the forest along with Sathrughna.Let Rama rule Ayodhya along with Lakshmana.Let the gods fulfil his wish!!

If Rama refuses to come back to Ayodhya, he should atleast allow him to stay with him.

Next dy morning Bharatha woke up Sathrughna. Sathrughna said he did not sleep the entire night thinking of Rama only.In the meanwhile Guha came and enquired about the arrangements aand how well they slept the previous night.Bharatha said that they were satisfied with his arrangements and he should help them cross the river as soon as possible.
