Sita Ravana Debate
Hearing this Ravana got angry and raised his eyebrows started telling really harsh words “ Hey the Queen amongst women with a slender waist like the Lightning ! Khubera and mysef were born to same father to different Wives. I became famous known as Ravana and Dasagreeva. Like all the animals run away seeing Death, seeing me Devas(Celestials), Dhanav(Demon), Gandharva (Musicians), Pisacha(Ghosts), Uraga (Fortune telling angels)and Pannaga(Serpents clan), Yaksha (Spirits), Manushya (Humans) their entourages too run away. For some reason I had to fight Khubera won over him and made him Kadhara(Pleading, Yelling, Bellowing, screaming loudly,in Exasperation) Khubera got terrified and left all the Wealth along with the Capital Lanka and is now residing in Kailash. I captured the Pushpaka Vimana(Flower hover Air craft which can travel any where in the sky). If I get Angry the celestials will get scared and go hide themselves. Even the wind will be scared where I am present and blow slowly. Sun will hide his Rays and will give the pleasantness of Moon. The leaves in the Tress do not move. The water in the Rivers stop flowing. Wherever I am where ever I travel same is applicable. Indra has the capital called Amaravathi and I have Lanka. It is surrounded by seas and infested with gory Rakshsaas , with fort walls made of Silver and House walls made of Gold, and the steps to the houses are embedded with Navarathnas 1.Khembhu(Red Ruby) 2. Komedhakam(Sardonyx) 3.Neelam(Saphire) 4. Maragadha(Emerald) 5. Pavazham(Coral) 6. Pushparaga(Topaz) 7. Manickam (Carbuncle) 8. Muthu (Natural Pearl) 9. Vairam/Vaidooriyum (Diamond / Lapiz Lazuli) . Lanka is guarded by strong, match less courageous Army . You will hear Songs, Dance,Music emanating from Musical instruments always sweetly. The garden has rare breed of Flowers and Fruits all through the Year. There you can live happily with me and you will not think of Human ladies and their enjoyment.
“ Rama is the eldest son; who should have got the Kingdom. When that be so a lady gave the kingdom to her son and drove away the Strength less Rama to Forest. How much is the Vaour of Rama? How much is his Life span? After all he is only a Human; are you going to think about him only? What is the use for you by a Rama who lost his Power, reduced Radiance, with his intellect swooning , hapless, wearing the garb of Thapasvi(Saintly mendicant) naïve person? I am the Lord of all the Rakshasaas in all the worlds. Having developed love for you, I have myself come to you. It will not be good for you to do Alakshyam (Contempt, indifference,Ignoring, not bothered, care too hoots,abhore)about me. In earlier times Emperor Pruravas was scorned by Angel Urvasi kicked him and pushed him , later she felt remorseful and went in search of him, like wise if you abhore me then you will also repent more later. In Battle will Rama match my little Finger? Afterall he is Human. It is your Adhrushtam ( good fortune, Luck ) that I have come in search of you. You join me and enjoy Sukham (Comfort, Luxury, Joy, Fun, Cheer, Love, Affection and fulfilled Desires)” Sita got infurated by these platitudes of Ravana with fiery red eyes spoke very harshly
“ Dhusta ! Khubera is born with you is a Great Soul, he is worshipped in all the worlds. Despite being his youger brother where did you inherit bad thoughts from? You have Sinful thoughts and Foul intellect , without winning over the Indriyas , tormenting Pious, having you as King ,all the Rakshasaas will perish, is there any doubt on that score? Matchless beautiful Indarani one can usurp and may surive; but if you were to abduct me, even if you have consumed the immortal Amrutham(Elixir), can you escape Death from Rama? “ thus she abused Ravana.(Slokas 24).
