About the Ramayana :- The Ayodhya Kanda is the most emotionally powerful section of the Ramayana. As King Dasharatha prepares to crown Rama as heir, Queen Kaikeyi — influenced by her maid Manthara — invokes two ancient boons, demanding that Rama be exiled for 14 years and her own son Bharata be crowned instead. Rama accepts exile without a moment of hesitation, demonstrating perfect obedience and dharma. Sita and Lakshmana insist on accompanying him. The citizens of Ayodhya weep as the three depart for the forest. King Dasharatha dies of grief. When Bharata learns of these events, he rushes to the forest and begs Rama to return, but Rama refuses to break his father's word. Bharata takes Rama's sandals and places them on the throne, ruling as regent. This kanda teaches the supreme value of keeping one's word and the power of sacrifice.

रामस्य वचनम् श्रुत्वा भरतः प्रत्युवाच ह |
किम् मे धर्माद्विहीनस्य राजधर्मः करिष्यति || २-१०२-१

Hearing Rama's words, Bharata replied as follows: "What will the discharge of royal duties amount to me, who is outside of that code?"
राम के वचन सुनकर भरत ने उत्तर दिया। धर्म से विहीन मेरे लिए राजधर्म क्या कर सकता है?

Ayodhya Kanda – Sarga 102 · v2
शाश्वतोऽयं सदा ध्रमः स्थितोऽस्मासु नरर्षभ |
जेष्ठपुत्रे स्थ्ते राजन् न कनीयान् नृपो भवेत् || २-१०२-२

"O, the foremost of men! O, Majesty! It has been ever the established tradition in us that while the elder son is there, the younger one cannot become a king."
यह सनातन धर्म है जो हम में स्थित है, हे नरश्रेष्ठ! हे राजन, जब ज्येष्ठ पुत्र जीवित हो तो छोटा पुत्र राजा नहीं हो सकता।

Ayodhya Kanda – Sarga 102 · v3
स समृद्धां मया सार्धमयोध्यां गच्छ राघव |
अभिषेचय चात्मानं कुलस्यास्य भवाय नः ||२-१०२-३

"O, Rama! Therefore, come to the prosperous Ayodhya along with me and get anointed in kingdom for the welfare of our race."

राजानं मानुषं प्राहुर्देवत्वे सम्मतो मम |
यस्य धर्मार्थसहितं वृत्तमाहुरमानुषम् || २-१०२-४

"The king, whom people speak of as a human being and whose conduct is in conformity with righteousness and worldly prosperity, they declare as super- human, is conceded by me as a god-head."
राजा को मनुष्य कहा जाता है, पर मेरा मत है कि देवत्व में भी वह सम्मत है। क्योंकि जिसका आचरण धर्म और अर्थ से युक्त होता है, उसे मनुष्य से परे माना जाता है।

प्रियेण खलु दत्तं हि पितृलोकेषु राघव |
अक्षय्यं भवतीत्याहुर्भवांश्चैव पितुः प्रियः || २-१०२-८

"O, Rama! It is said that the one given by an affectionate son becomes measureless and you undoubtedly are beloved to our father."
हे राघव, तुम्हारे प्रिय पिता ने तुम्हें जो दिया है, वह पितृलोक में अक्षय (कभी नष्ट न होने वाला) होता है, ऐसा कहा जाता है। तुम भी अपने पिता के प्रिय हो।

Ayodhya Kanda – Sarga 102 · v9
त्वामेव शोचंस्तव दर्शनेप्सुः |
त्वयेव सक्तामनिवर्त्य बुद्धिम् |
