Sita
Having been adorned nicely the young vibrant Ravana matchless in physique and handsome with desire was proceeding towards her and the Princes and the Noblest amongst Pathrivarathas Janaki(Sita) like the Plantain tree hit by a storm was trembling, while she was sitting on the floor ,immediately she covered her stomach with her thighs and her breasts with her hands hid them and was worried what might happen with tears rolling down her Eyes. Ravana saw Sita who was sitting in the centre of Rakshasis and she was like the sinking ship in the ocean, afflicted by the deep sorrow In bare ground , though was worthy of wearing all the Jewellery she was not wearing ornament and was wearing Weeping as her Ornament, like the branch of the Tree which has been sheared,she was shining but not with much Lusture like the Marshy sand slushed Lotus stalks, Unable to attain Atma Gyani (Possesor of Wisdom about the Soul)Rama physically; Horses of Thoughts tied to the Chariot of Manam which is { Chitha(Memory) +Inner Conscience Mind +Intellect(Bhuddhi) +Ego}hurries to reach near him so was Sita’s state then. With pale face and constant crying, thinking about Rama in solitude was the only recourse she adopted. She did not know when her grief will end. She Believed Rama was her refuge.Like the wife of Naga raja(King of Serpent) bound by Manthra (chanting of powerful Verse) sprawling in the ground and like the Rohini star inflicted by Ketu planet,Like the Lady who is born in Good cultured Lineage and married to a person from a henious clan( For Ladies Marriage is 2nd Birth and so is Upanayanam(Jhanevu) for Men) , Fame smeared by the unnecessary Abavadham (Ignonimy or Public Disgrace, slander), like the Vedic scholar who had not been frequently practicing, Erased Reputation, the dedication of a person who has attained Avamanam (Slur, Ridicule,shunn , Disgrace), the decling Celestial worship, the dsire which has not benifitted, the Profit of Money compared to estimation, the command of the Master which has been shunned with disdain, during bad times there is Fire in all directions, like the ingredients for Puja having been ursurped, The Lotus Stream having been burnt by Dew/Fog, Like the Army which lost it’s warrior men,the light surrounded by darkness, like the River parched, the Agni kundam (FirePit) touched by impure ingredients,like the quenched Flame of Fire, Like Full Moon which is swallowed by Rahu(Lunar Eclipse), The Lotus stream which is trumpled by Elephant with all the Lotus flowers , Birds and destroyed, The Water in river which has been washed away with Flood, Like the Lotus creeper which has been plucked and put in the banks withers with Heat, Having lbeen separated from her husband and having been tied tightly to the Pillar and breathing heavily like the Female Elephant , With black Long Hair braid she looked like the Winter darkened Forest which is seen all over the world.Due to no bath and no decorations she did not apperar like the night during waxing moon, Since she has been brought up in opulence and has sublime dimensions of the Limbs in the body, she is worthy of Living in a house emshrined with Rare Gems Navarathnas (1.Kembu- Ruby 2. Komedhaga - Sardonyx 3. Neela -Saphire 4. Maragadaha-Emerald 5. Pavazham -Coral6.Pushparagam -Topaz7. Manickam -Carbucle8. Muthu -Pearl9.VAIRAM/Vaidooriyam- Diamond/Lapis Lazuli).Due to fast, fear, worry, since she was always thinking of her husband,she had gone physiclly very weak. Unhappyily having water as food, wanted Rama to Kill Ravana quickly, She appeared to pray to her Ditey close to her Heart. She is sinless in her conduct; She has beautiful Eyes and Eye lashes; She was crying that those who will guard have not yet come. She observes the Dharma her husband follows, and she was in anguish owing to her separation from her husband seeing her Ravana with his cunning words tried to lure her. By that he invited his destruction. (Slokas 23)
