Doubts and Discussions from the Ramayan II - Page 5

@ Rimi: Sitaji is introduced as "Sita'" only in Uttarkand by Valmiki to his wife and other women no mention of Sita as Vandevi

The verses are 7-49-22 &23 Valmiki tells the women that Sita was the daughter in law of Dasharatha and daughter of Janaka, the sinless one who had been abandoned by her husband and that she was under his protection "forever" so the women should take spl care of her and look after her needs, the women happily take her near them and assure Valmiki that his orders would be carried. Its Sitaji who says that she was grateful to them and she would do her own chores ,also she requests the wives of Muni to take her as their shishya 7-49-24

Chandra bhaiya: The distance between Naimisharanya and Valmiki ashram at the banks of river ganga is approximately 100 kms

according to Uttarkand the ashram of Valmiki is on the banks of river Ganga but in Ayodhya kand R-L-S meet Valmiki at Chirakuta, this part is confusing to me.

Maybe peeps at the time lived at one place for 7 years or so, and then moved. Valmiki may have moved from Chitrakoot sometime between Rama leaving Chitrakoot and Sita being exiled.

Thank you Chandraketu. Thank you so much for the videos. 😃

Thank you for videos, Chandraketu!
Funny, I just posted similar videos in my blog, but from "Jai Hanuman".
So when I saw it here, I jumped!

I remember reading in a translation of Uttar Kand that Ram tells Lakshman to take Sita beyond the borders of Ayodhya (also beyond the borders of Kosala) and leave her near Maharishi Valmiki's Ashram. The Sage may have been there from the time Ram, Sita and Lakshman met him during their exile. As far as I know, Maharishi Valmiki lived near the banks of the river Tamasa but beyond the borders of Kosala (probably not too far away from the border).
