PAADUKAA PATTAABHISHEKAM

bHARATHA ANS sATHRUGHNA ALIGHTED THE CHARIOT.Bharatha held Raama paadukas on his head and went to Nandi graamam.He came down and talked to Vasishta.Kingdom given by Rama will be looked after by Sreeraama paadukalu only.You hold the white umbrella to these Paadukas only.We have to treat them as if they are real Ramas feet.They only will protect the kingdom.I will rule this kingdom till his return from woods.Rama gave it to me to save.Once Rama returns from the woods ,Bharatha would make him wear the padukas and then look at Ramas feet with respect and reverence.Then I would be devoid of this burden and then afterwards I can peacefully serve his brother to his hearts content.If Sreerama takes back the kingdom and looks after the peoples welfare,Bharatha would feel happy fourfold than these material pleasures.

Bharatha wore jataavalakamulu like a sage and lived in Nandi gramam and waited for Ramas return.He enthroned Rama paadukas and he used to brief his deeds to Rama paadukas.He used to serve Rama paadukas.He left all the burden on the paadukas and was ruling the country in its name.
