Sundarakanda
Sarga 32
Sita was perplexed seeing him, who is of tawny complexion like cluster of lightnings, hidden in the branches wearing a white cloth,.
She saw the Vanara who is readily approaching, who spoke pleasingly, who is looking like a cluster of Ashoka flowers in full bloom, with eyes of molten gold. Very much surprised, Maithili started thinking. 'This Vanara's form is frightening and terrible to look at. He is inaccessible'. Thinking over this again she almost fainted. Sita, the noble lady, lost in fear, enveloped with sorrow, cried pitiably saying repeatedly 'Rama' and 'Lakshmana'. Sita in a low voice cried in many ways.
Seeing that Vanara standing humbly nearby, Maithili thought this must be a dream. Looking further she saw a Vanara with a large curved face, who is an obedient servant, a minister of the Vanara king, foremost among the intelligent, and son of wind god. Looking at him, she quickly lost her senses. The large eyed lady quickly recovered and started thinking.
'Today I saw an ugly monkey in my dream which is a prohibited animal in dreams by Sastras. Let auspicious things happen for Rama, Lakshmana, and the king my father Janaka. This is not a dream. Troubled by grief and sorrow I have no sleep and no happiness without the one whose face is like that of full moon'.
'Thinking of Rama and Rama only, always saying things about him, always thinking of his form, always talking about him, now I am seeing him and hearing him. I am tormented by intense love for Rama. With thoughts always immersed in him, always thinking about him, now I see him and hear him. All of this is my wish I think. I am deliberating on my mind. But that mind has no form. But this one in front of me has a form and is speaking to me why?'
'Salutations to Indra along with Brihaspati, Brahma the creator and the fire god too. Let all those words spoken by the Vanara in front of me be true and not anything else'.
Thus ends the Sarga thirty two of Sundarakanda in Ramayana the first poem ever composed in Sanskrit by the first poet sage Valmiki.
||om tat sat||
नमोsस्तु वाचस्पतये सवज्रिणे
स्वयंभुवे चैव हुताशनायच।
अनेन चोक्तं यदिदं ममाग्रतो
वनौकसा तच्च तथास्तु नान्यथा॥14||
स॥ सवज्रिणे वाचस्पतये स्वयंभुवे च एव हूताशनाय च नमः अस्तु। अनेन वनौकसा मम अग्रतः यत् इदं उक्तं तत् तथा अस्तु। अन्यथा न॥
Salutations to Indra along with Brihaspati, Brahma the creator and the fire god too. Let all those words spoken by the Vanara in front of me be true and not anything else.
