21 passagesदृष्ट्वा तु मैथिलीं सीतामाश्रमे सम्प्रवेशिताम् । सन्तापमगमद्घोरं लक्ष्मणो दीनचेतनः ।। ७.५०.१ ।।
But when Lakshmana, his mind cast down, saw Maithilī Sītā led into the hermitage, he fell into terrible anguish.
अब्रवीच्च महातेजाः सुमन्त्रं मन्त्रसारथिम् । सीतासन्तापजं दुःखं पश्य रामस्य सारथे ।। ७.५०.२ ।।
And the greatly radiant one said to Sumantra, the counsellor-charioteer: ‘Behold, O charioteer of Rāma, the sorrow born of Sītā’s anguish.’
ततो दुःखतरं किं नु राघवस्य भविष्यति । पत्नीं शुद्धसमाचारां विसृज्य जनकात्मजाम् ।। ७.५०.३ ।।
Then, after abandoning Janaka’s daughter, his wife, whose conduct was pure, what could be more painful for Rāghava?
व्यक्तं दैवादहं मन्ये राघवस्य विना भवम् । वैदेह्या सारथे नित्यं दैवं हि दुरतिक्रमम् ।। ७.५०.४ ।।
I plainly think that Rāghava’s state of being without Vaidehī is caused by fate. O charioteer, fate is indeed always impossible to overcome.
यो हि देवान्सगन्धर्वानसुरान्सह राक्षसैः । निहन्याद्राघवः क्रुद्धः स दैवमनुवर्तते ।। ७.५०.५ ।।
For Rāghava, when enraged, could slay the gods, the gandharvas, and the asuras together with the rākṣasas; yet even he follows fate.
