AATHREYA - MANDODARI , A Mute Spectator

Mandodara is a noble and chaste lady . She is the

first and foremost wife of Paulasthya RaavaNa

Brahma ( Patta Mahishi ) . Whatever may be the

deeds of Her husband , Mandodari never interfered

and always remained a loyal wife as a silent spectator.but when RaavaNa abducted Seetha Maatha ,

Mandodari could no longer remain unconcerned and

along with VibheeshaNa and KumbhakarNa , She

also tried Her best to counsel RaavaNa and pleaded

with him to return Seetha Maatha and seek refuge in

Sri Raama , but for no avial. She begged and

beseeched RaavaNa to realize his folly and had to

suffer the loss of Her sons , Akshaya Kumar at the

hands of Hanuman and Meghanaath Indradyumna at

the hands of LakshmaNa and ultimately see even

RaavaNa being killed by Raama. But Mandodari was

given a boon ; as long as one's funeral pyre is burning

a Lady cannot be considered a widow and it was

decreed that RaavaNa's funeral pyre shall never be

extinguished and always keeps burning and hence

Devi Mandodari can never become a widow.

0M THATH SATH.
