TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
The people of Shri Ayodhyaji started blaming Bhagwati Kaikeyi Mata. But when some people blamed Shri Bharatlalji and expressed his consent in this decision, then those who knew the love of Shri Bharatlalji towards GOD Shree Ramji would cover their ears with their hands because they believed that even hearing such a thing would be a sin. They told the people who said such a thing that it will destroy all their virtues because GOD Shree Ramji is dearer to Shri Bharatlalji more than his life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD must be dearer to us more than our life.

Those people who knew the ShreeRam love of Shri Bharatlalji said that whether Shri Chandradevji (Moon GOD) starts showering sparks of fire or nectar takes poison form to take the life of someone but Shri Bharatlalji cannot do anything against GOD Shree Ramji even in his dream. Therefore, in the exile of GOD Shree Ramji, as demanded by Bhagwati Kaikeyi Mata, there will be no consent of Shri Bharatlalji at all.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD in His human pastimes was loved by everyone.

The wives of the Brahmins of Shri Ayodhyaji and the old women of the family who were very dear to Bhagwati Kaikeyi Mata also came to convince her. They clearly said that after GOD Shree Ramji goes to exile neither Bhagwati Sita Mata will stay nor Shri Lakshmanji will stay, neither Shri Bharatlalji will rule as a king nor King Shri Dashrathji will be able to survive.

When GOD Shree Ramji went to His mother Bhagwati Kaushalya Mata to take her leave for exile, He did not say that He had been sent to exile but said that His father had given Him the kingdom of forest in which He would be blessed. This shows the sentiments of GOD that He even considered the tragic exile as a sign of joy and auspiciousness.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Our faith in GOD must remain firm and unaffected even in adverse situations.

When Bhagwati Kaushalya Mata came to know about the exile, while fulfilling her vow of husband, she told GOD Shree Ramji that obeying the orders of the father is the topmost duty of all the duties. She said that now the forest will become very fortunate where the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD will fall and now Shri Ayodhyaji will become unfortunate and deserted after GOD will leave it. The principle is that wherever GOD goes, the fortune of that place awakens.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Only those are fortunate who get the contiguity of GOD.

When GOD Shree Ramji was in the palace of Bhagwati Kaushalya Mata, Bhagwati Sita Mata came there after hearing the news of exile. She was only thinking whether both body and soul would go to the forest with GOD or only the soul would be able to go with GOD. If GOD gives permission to accompany then both the body and the soul will go but if He does not give permission then the body will be left behind and only the soul will go with GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Our body, mind and soul must all be put in service of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
GOD Shree Ramji told Bhagwati Sita Mata that exile is very difficult and terrible. One has to endure the sunshine, cold, rain and wind. On the way, there are thorns and pebbles and they have to walk on foot. On the way, there are inaccessible mountains, caves and rivers. Hearing the voice of bears, snakes, tigers, wolves, lions and elephants, patience also runs away. GOD told Mata that the Mata is of such a soft heart, who is scared to see the monkey even in the picture, how will she be able to live among the real predatory animals of the forest. Therefore, GOD said that Mata should live in Shri Ayodhyaji with peace but Mata was ready to suffer everything for GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Devotees pleasing accept any suffering of the world for the sake of GOD.

GOD Shree Ramji tells Bhagwati Sita Mata that the troubles of the forest cannot be described. One has to endure great hardship in the forest. Herds of demons live in the forest. GOD says that Mata has got all the happiness and compatibility in Her native place and in Her in-laws place therefore Mata should not abandon it and She is not worthy of exile which is full of tribulation. GOD says that can a goose (lady swan), who grew in nectar-like water of Mansarovar, survive in the salty water of the ocean ? According to GOD, this is not possible at all but Mata did make this impossible possible due to Her fidelity towards Her husband and Her love towards GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Even in suffering the devotees of GOD are fully devoted to GOD.

To go to exile, Bhagwati Sita Mata requests GOD Shree Ramji that She also wants to go with Him. Mata says that without GOD even heaven is like hell for Her. The world seems like the torment of hell without GOD. She does not see anything pleasant in the world without GOD. Therefore, Mata addressed GOD as the abode of mercy and provider of happiness and asks Him to take Her in exile to give Her the happiness of contiguity of GOD.

- There is only happiness in the contiguity of GOD.

Bhagwati Sita Mata is the foremost in following the duties of a woman, whose example is found in this verse. Mata says that without GOD Shree Ramji, all relations with mother, father, sister, brother, family, friends, in-laws, masters, son and as far as all the relations of affection are concerned, they all are discarded. Without GOD Her body, wealth, house, land, city and state are all going to give Her grief. No one can even imagine in the dream the way as Bhagwati Sita Mata followed Her fidelity towards Her husband and Her female duty. Women today should worship Bhagwati Parvati Mata and Bhagwati Sita Mata in order to fulfill and strengthen their fidelity towards their husbands and their female duty.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- For devotees, all affection and relations are centered around GOD.

GOD Shree Ramji spoke about the tiredness and hard work of continuously walking in the forest during exile to explain Bhagwati Sita Mata. Mata expressed a very beautiful feeling that Her tiredness would be overcome moment by moment by the continuous visualization of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. It is also the principle of life that the constant remembrance of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD removes the tiredness given by the world.

When Shri Lakshmanji heard about exile, he immediately reached GOD Shree Ramji. Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says a very heart-touching thing that Shri Lakshmanji broke all the relations of his body and home from his mind and stood in front of GOD. It meant that he neither asked anything from his father King Shri Dashrathji, nor his mother Bhagwati Sumitraji, nor his wife Bhagwati Urmilaji. He immediately forgot all his relations for GOD. Seeing such dedication, GOD Shree Ramji was left with no other option except to allow him to accompany.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must forget all our worldly relations in front of GOD.
