Running head : RAMA IN RAMAYANA Rama in Ramayana [Name of author] [Institutional information] In the epic story of Ramayana , one of the cornerstones of the story is the part where Rama attempts to rescue Sita . In the story , Rama is considered the most heroic among all the characters precisely because of his devotion to the rules of dharma . Even during the times when still he was small , Rama was considered to be the perfect son , up to the point when he married Sita thereby considering him further as the perfect husband . More importantly , Rama gladly and willingly accepted the order of his father , king Dasharatha , to abandon the kingdom and be banished , hence removing him from the position as heir to the throne . The poignant part of the story where Rama 's knowledge and perception are further enriched is the part where he encountered Ravana who followed him in the forest . Ravana is the younger brother of Rama who was enthroned as the king of Ayodhya after Rama was banished from the kingdom .

That goes to show that Rama was willing to face both ends of the situation , or that he was willing to face any situation that he is confronted with . That is so because , having lived with the rules of dharma , Rama very well knows the consequences that awaited his every decision . This time around , his decision to return as the king of Ayodhya can be said as part of his responsibility as the eldest son of the king , hence the rightful ruler , and part of his realization that the kindness of Ravana begets his kindness to accept not only the fact that he is the rightful king but also the willingness of Ravana to bequeath Rama his rightful position in the kingdom . Eventually , Rama willingly accepted the offer of Ravana which is not only a sign of respect to an offer which is rightfully his but is also a sign of accepting the propensity of having to rule an entire kingdom under his watch . Quite apart from the fact that accepting such a huge responsibility requires determination and... |
