While
Rama and Sita are in exile, the kingdom has become distraught without Rama. The
king, Dasaratha has passed away and the prince Bharata does not know what to do
without his father and Rama. While on the way to the funeral Vasistha is along
Bharata and they begin to discuss the problem going on in the kingdom.
Bharata
says, “ I must search for Rama and bring him back to this kingdom for him to
take over the throne”.
Vasistha
responds, “ The kingdom is a mess and I feel the same way, he is our only hope to
keep this kingdom from collapsing”.
Bharata, “ What should we do my friend, maybe we should
collect some of the citizens and go find Rama and Sita”.
Vasistha nervously says, “It is too dangerous to go into the
forest to find Rama, we shall wait for him to come back”.
Bharata angered by Vasistha comments says, “ Do not be a
coward, he is our only hope to lead this kingdom, if we do not go out now there
is no hope for us or our people”.
Vasistha embarrassed by his comments says,” You are right my
prince, we must lead a search for our great Rama, We shall bring Rama back”.
After their discussion they begin to proceed to find
citizens that are willing to travel in to the forest and risk theirs lives just
to find Rama. They are surprised about how many people are willing to risk
theirs lives for Rama but at the same time they know that this means Rama is
the right person to lead this kingdom by the response they have gotten. Bharata
then gathers the search team together.
Bharata says, “ My fellow people, we must not be afraid to
go on this voyage to bring back Rama, we shall risk our lives for him as he
would do the same for us”.
The team cheers, “ We must find Rama”
Vasistha then says, “ Too any of those who do not want to
go, this is your last chance to back out, there is no going back without our
great leader”.
Bharata and Vasistha looked around but hear no voices or
emotions from any of the search team. Bharata then begins to open up the gates
and leads the team to find Rama.
Bharata says, “ This my friends is the kind of courage and
bravery that Rama will show for us as our leader everyday”.
Rama is back |
Author's Note: The story "We shall bring back Rama" is basically another story that the title speaks for itself. The story basically is about Rama being in exile and the citizens of the kingdom want him to come back. The King also wants his son to come back because everyone seems to want Rama back.
