42 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अयोध्याकाण्डे एकोनविंशः सर्गः ॥२-१९॥ तदप्रियममित्रघ्नो वचनं मरणोपमम्। श्रुत्वा न विव्यथे रामः कैकेयीं चेदमब्रवीत्॥ १॥
In the venerable Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Ayodhyā Kāṇḍa, this is the nineteenth canto. [2.19] Having heard that unpleasant, death-like statement, O destroyer of foes, Rāma did not grieve, and he said this to Kaikeyī:
एवमस्तु गमिष्यामि वनं वस्तुमहं त्वितः। जटाचीरधरो राज्ञः प्रतिज्ञामनुपालयन्॥ २॥
“So be it. I will go from here to the forest to dwell there, wearing matted hair and a bark garment, and fulfilling the king’s promise.”
इदं तु ज्ञातुमिच्छामि किमर्थं मां महीपतिः। नाभिनन्दति दुर्धर्षो यथापूर्वमरिंदमः॥ ३॥
“But I wish to know this: for what reason does the king, that unconquerable subduer of foes, not welcome me as formerly?”
मन्युर्न च त्वया कार्यो देवि ब्रूमि तवाग्रतः। यास्यामि भव सुप्रीता वनं चीरजटाधरः॥ ४॥
“You must not become angry, Goddess. I tell you this in your presence: I shall go to the forest wearing bark and matted hair. Be pleased.”
हितेन गुरुणा पित्रा कृतज्ञेन नृपेण च। नियुज्यमानो विस्रब्धः किं न कुर्यामहं प्रियम्॥ ५॥
Appointed by a benevolent, venerable, grateful father and king, and acting with confidence, what beloved thing would I not do?
