Guest guest Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 This I am writing after hearing lectures and reading books. The source for this is Tulsi Ramcharitmanas & Tulsi Vinay Patrika. The symbolic meaning of Sita Vivaha is as follows. Lord Ramachandra has broken the bow ie., Bava Chap. In Ramayan u can see that Rama is supreme and knowledge is also supreme. Sita is Bhakti or Mukti. The sita vivaha is knowledge weds bhakti because mere knowledge is not enough one should have also bhakti. So what is the thing required for marriage is breaking of Bhava Chap. Bhava means samasaric bondages the person who breaks the bondages is alone eligible for real bhakti or knowledge. How did rama break the bow is a question. There were egoistic raja also but only rama could break the reason is that one who is having guru bhakti can break the bondages. When everybody were trying it could not break when rama stood and bowed before viswamitra and got his blessings and he could break it. In the same way sita haran is also like that only how I am explaining it below: When bhakti goes behind golden deer, what will happen sita haran will happen. See in our life also when we are doing bhakti and when our mind goes behind some articles the dasanan (ie., 10 indriya will capture us) and will take to lanka(bhoga nagari) and mother sita here tell us how to live in Bhoga nagari. What is this bhoga nagari it is nothing but earth so the teaching for us here is to in the earth we should not get ourself attached to material things and only sita was thinking of that rama who has gone behind golden deer for herself. So we should also in the earth always think of god and nothing other than it is the symbolic teaching. You can see one thing in this ramayan that Lakshman went behind that sita who was following Rama so he was always happy but Ravana went behind that sita who was behind golden deer that is why Ravana was weak . That means if we go behind the devotees we will be happy and if we go behind that people who are in material things we will perish. In my next writings I will write something about Vali and suriva. With due respects to all . v.anjaneyulu powergrid 400kv s/s, betul road, pathrota, itarsi – 461 111(mp) India Phone/fax : 07572-261103, Resi : 07572-261335 ______________________ Missed your favourite TV serial last night?
