28 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अयोध्याकाण्डे पञ्चमः सर्गः ॥२-५॥ संदिश्य रामं नृपतिः श्वोभाविन्यभिषेचने। पुरोहितं समाहूय वसिष्ठमिदमब्रवीत्॥ १॥
In the glorious Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Ayodhyā Kāṇḍa, the fifth canto, Book 2, Chapter 5. Having instructed Rāma concerning the consecration that was to take place the next day, the king summoned his royal priest Vasiṣṭha and said this. ॥ 1 ॥
गच्छोपवासं काकुत्स्थं कारयाद्य तपोधन। श्रेयसे राज्यलाभाय वध्वा सह यतव्रत॥ २॥
“Go and cause Kākutstha to undertake a fast today, O treasure of asceticism, together with his bride, for the sake of prosperity and the attainment of the kingdom, O you whose vow is disciplined.”
तथेति च स राजानमुक्त्वा वेदविदां वरः। स्वयं वसिष्ठो भगवान् ययौ रामनिवेशनम्॥ ३॥
“So be it,” he said to the king. Then the blessed Vasiṣṭha, foremost among those versed in the Veda, himself went to Rāma’s residence.
उपवासयितुं वीरं मन्त्रविन्मन्त्रकोविदम्। ब्राह्मं रथवरं युक्तमास्थाय सुधृतव्रतः॥ ४॥
In order to make the heroic Rāma, who knew sacred formulas and was skilled in sacred formulas, undertake the fast, he mounted the excellent sacred chariot that had been yoked, being one whose vow was firmly maintained.
स रामभवनं प्राप्य पाण्डुराभ्रघनप्रभम्। तिस्रः कक्ष्या रथेनैव विवेश मुनिसत्तमः॥ ५॥
Having reached Rāma’s residence, which shone like a mass of pale cloud, that excellent sage entered through three enclosures in the very chariot.
