The truth about Maryada Purushottama - the Perfect Man. 1
by Truth Knight on Nov 16, 2007 03:38 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

      1. Rama was ever-suspecting of his wife%u2019s chastity no matter what she did to prove it to him. After winning his battle against Ravan he forced Sita to undergo an Agni pariksha (Walking through the fire to prove her chastity) -- which Sita complied with and passed.
Then, as Ramayana itself tells, Rama banished his wife Sita when she was pregnant to convince "a few critics" in his kingdom, who thought that Sita was unchaste due to her long captivity in Ravana%u2019s city.
To Rama the appeasement of a "few critics" was more important than his duty as a (so called loving) husband and as a to-be-father. It was only out of suspicion on Sita%u2019s chastity that this so called "loving" husband with "high moral values" abandoned Sita.

2. On the other hand, Ravana, a non-Aryan, who is regarded as a demon in the Ramayana, was a man who never violated Sita even when she was in his captivity. When he kidnapped Sita, he did not take her to his palace but instead arranged a separate place for her with women attendants. Nevertheless, Ram killed him. This act also highlights that Ram was no where close to being a man of "high moral values". (Continued)

You are an idiot and a moron who doesn't know the moral responsibilities of one's role.
1. A leader should sacrifice his self happiness for the happiness of the people. Rama requested Sita to do agnipariksha and go vanvaas to prevent all citizens from believing those critics. Obviously, you lick current day politician's back who sacrifice people for self benefit, so you don't understand this.
2. Let me kidnap your wife or mother and keep her in my garage without touching her and see what you do. May be you will come and congratulate me I guess. Btw, Ravana kept her aloof untouched cos he will die if he touches her. Thats why he kidnaps her along with the piece of ground she was standing, without touching her. Sita herself can kill Ravana, but she left it to her husband as that is the dharma of a king's wife. You donkey holes will not know these obviously.
