Dasharatha Stories

Veera Rasa: The Essence of Bravery Bravery comes in hundreds of forms, as a soldier in a battlefield lined with arms, as a rescuer in a disaster stricken block, as a mother bearing through labour. For Sumitra, it was the latter. Part 1 of Navarasa series.

! POTENTIALLY SLOW UPDATES ! . . We all know the story. Lord Ramachandra returned with Sitadevi from Mithila, along with his brothers and their wives. Shortly after, Maharaja Dasharatha resolved to coronate Sri Rama and take Vanaprastha himself. However, things didn't go exactly as planned. A Week To Coronation focuses keenly on the seven days before Lord Ramachandra's departure for the forest, as the title suggests. A storyline inspired by the original, yet containing its own unique additions and styles. DISCLAIMER- I classify this as neither a fanfiction nor a plain retelling. Consider it a mix of both. Allergic readers are advised to stay clear. Happy Reading :)

Vālmīki's Rāmāyaṇa inspired the stories in this collection to answer questions such as these: What would Rāma have thought about a monument to mark his janmabhūmi? Why did Rāma tell Bharata that the kingdom was Kaikeyī's bride-price? How did Hanumat get the idea that Rāvaṇa never abducted any unwilling or married woman before Sītā? Why did the luminous herbs disappear when Hanumat came for them? At what age were Rāma and Sītā exiled? Did Hanumat witness Dhānyamālinī or Mandodarī distracting Rāvaṇa from Sītā? How could Mahodara and Mahāpārśva return to battle after they were slain? The title is Saṃskṛta and means "Recognize Ayodhyā In The Wilderness," which was part of Sumitrā's advice to Lakṣmaṇa in Vālmīki's Rāmāyaṇa. The first six chapters are Drabbles of exactly 100 words, and the next eight chapters are Microtales of 15 words. Much later, I added another Drabble as the fifteenth chapter. Each story is based on Vālmīki's Rāmāyaṇa, and supported with citations from the text. Cover Credit: average-student of India Forums, using images from Chitra Ramayana by Balasaheb Pant Pratinidhi.
