Oh secure lady! I am declaring this today, with a determined mind. Set your mind on Lakshmana or Bharata as is comfortable to you.
Alternatively, set your mind, as per your convenience, on S`atrughna, Sugriva or Vibhishana.
BLOGGER'S COMMENTS
*How should a husband/lover when he first sees his wife/beloved, brought back after suffering some great hardships, behave? He has to hug her or at least hold her hands with compassion and empathy. He has to enquire about her travails. This duty, the King Rama omitted.
*Can a husband say: You go to some Mr. X or Mr. Y or Mr. Z? Suggesting names, is none of his business.
