Chapter 259
Finally, Ravana paid homage to Rama with an incredulous expression and then breathed his last, thus officially ending the life of the King of the Rakshasas.
In that instant, the burning Shemesh and the cold moon, imprisoned by the Demon King, reappeared with a roar!
In that instant, a dazzling light burst forth from Lanka Island and shot straight into the sky.
The aftershocks are spreading, just as the Lila is inevitable, radiating light throughout the Universe.
The beautiful tide continues to spread, reaching from the heavens to the Yomi; this joy is known to all.
Ravana's end brought about the Rama era, the reign of Rama.
Having rescued Sita and killed Ravana, Rama's fourteen-year contract with his father Dasharatha, came to an end, and Rama unsurprisingly became the new king of the Sun King Dynasty.
In the time of Rama, there were no sad people to mourn, no unspeakable terrors, no need for people to worry about disease, people were devout and loyal, lived in peace and contentment, and everyone was happy and harmonious.
Flowers bloom where fruits grow and trees flourish; the branches and leaves of the great tree are lush and verdant; timely rain always falls, and a gentle breeze always blows softly.
This is King Rama was revered throughout India in every era, from the Treta Yuga period to all times.
However, while all beings rejoiced in Rama's achievements, the curse of the ancient Vairocana took effect—
"You will spend many years searching for your faithful wife!"
This means that Rama searched for Ravana for Sita Ravana abducted him.
"One day, even your faithful wife will be accused of infidelity!"
This means that in Ancient India, or indeed in all feudal eras, chastity was more important than life for women who were in a lowly position. As a holy king who upheld the Dharma, King Rama would naturally abide by this, respect the opinions of the people, and listen to their demands.
Therefore, Rama, compared to his eighth avatar Krishna, lacked a certain humanity.
So after Rama became the Righteous King, at some point, the whole country began to spread the rumor that after Ravana Sita, Sita had already lost her virginity, and that the king was still taking care of his lover who had lost her virginity. This was undoubtedly meant to let people know that even if their wives were unfaithful, they had to endure it.
In cities, towns, and villages, everyone is talking about it.
When Rama heard these messages, he was deeply distressed and asked his ministers for their opinions.
What do you all think?
That's undoubtedly the case.
Rama had asked these ministers for comfort, but they all knelt down with their heads touching the ground in response.
This undoubtedly made Rama even more upset, so he dismissed the group.
But after much deliberation, Rama had to make a decision in order to quell the rumors in the country.
He instructed his brother Lakshmana to place Sita in a deserted meadow by the Ganges the following day, and to never again discuss Sita in the country.
In fact, Lakshmana had Sita this possibility as early as when Sita was rescued by Rama. At that time, Sita had also thrown herself into the fire to prove her innocence. Lakshmana then questioned Rama about why he had to make his sister- Sita -law Sita prove her innocence. He argued that if anyone had to throw herself into the fire, it should be him, because he had failed to protect his sister-in- Sita.
Even now, although he dared not disobey Rama's orders, Lakshmana still advised Rama to keep Sita, and even said Sita if Sita left the palace, he would also leave the Royal Palace. After all, Lakshmana was the reincarnation of the Serpent King Shesha, and therefore had Sita respect for Sita, the reincarnation of the Mistress. As for Rama's other two brothers, they were the reincarnations of Vishnu's Wonderful Wheel and Lotus Throne.
But Sita told Lakshmana, who had accompanied him, to return to Rama's side.
Late at night, Rama sat alone in the Royal Palace Ayodhya.
The world-renowned Righteous King's face was now as pale as an eclipsed moon, devoid of color. After all, she was his beloved, yet he had cruelly abandoned her—something unacceptable to anyone.
Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at Kavia was slowly walking out of the palace.
"Jia, you're here."
Kavia paused for a moment, then asked.
"Rama, have you decided on Sita's fate?"
Indian Mythology emphasizes a perfectly continuous cycle of reincarnation.
The death of the Jalandhara led to the curse of Vishnu Vedavati, which in turn caused the separation of Vishnu's Seventh Avatar, Rama, and Sita.
In the division of the Treta Yuga, Rama assisted Sugriva in killing Vali in order to eliminate Ravana. Vali's reincarnation, Jara, mistakenly believed that Krishna was lying on the ground, was a deer in the Dvapara Yuga. Chakra shot an arrow through his foot, causing Krishna's death.
It is certain that all of these are the inevitable result of the Supreme Brahman's 'Lila' and 'karma'.
Kavia had been waiting, waiting for the one who had surpassed the India gods, disregarded all Lila, and ended countless karmas to reach the 'end'.
He abandoned the Perfection path to becoming a Chakravartin (universal monarch) prescribed by Brahman, and through his own will, did not become Wheel-Turning King. Instead, he chose to travel through the war-torn India Age of Gods, visiting various societies, his footsteps covering the Ganges basin. Under the Sal Tree, he came to understand the true nature of humanity, becoming the only human to attain enlightenment and become a Buddha.
Gautama Siddhartha.
From the moment Kavia became the Aspected God, he knew that although he had become one of the Supreme Being in Indian Mythology, he was also in the midst of Spider of 'Lila'. India was not only the oldest Age of Gods on the Planet, but also a region where even knowing the Future development was useless.
If the Supreme Brahman truly exists somewhere observing the trajectory of all of India, then the 'trajectory' known from later generations is merely a drama of the Supreme Brahman, unlike the Greece who could alter some tragedies, unlike the Norse who, knowing of Future destruction, tried to prevent it but ended up causing destruction themselves, and unlike the Americas where the story ended voluntarily.
The events in India have only one inevitable ending. Whether or not one intervenes, the ending will come. The only question is whether intervention will make the 'drama' more interesting. Since the beginning of creation, the four Aspected God have known everything that has happened so far, but they can only watch it unfold.
As Vishnu said, if the Aspected God were to break free from the constraints of time, it would be disrespectful to Brahman and they would have to pay a price for it.
Vishnu, Brahma, and Shiva, as the Three Aspects gods, could only accept Lila's arrival with Sorrow, even though it concerned themselves. Kavia, on the other hand, was both Sorrow and Wrath, but he kept these feelings hidden in his heart because he understood that if there were any real opportunities, they would have to wait for the transcendence of the 'Savior'.
The Wheel-Turning King) is the Ideal King in Ancient India Veda legends; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he is an enhanced version of King Rama.
However, the Savior abandoned this Future, and out of his own heart, he realized the true nature of humanity and thus became an enlightened Savior, transcending the 'Lila' of the Supreme Brahman.
For Kavia, who became Aspected God, there had always been a seed of sorrow in his heart.
Under Shiva's Lila, Sati nearly went to Self-Immolation; how could he not be in pain then?
Under Jalandhara's Lila, Jalandhara went mad and caused the Vedavati to die of Sorrow. How could he not be distressed at that time?
Under the influence of Andhaka's Lila, Andhaka went into blindness and darkness, and how painful it was for him then.
Under Rama's Lila, Ravana became one of the sources of darkness. Even now, Rama, who has become Righteous King, ruthlessly abandons his beloved Sita, even though she is pregnant. Hanuman forces Sita to throw her into the water. If it weren't for the Sage Valmiki hearing Sita's cries in the rain at night, Sita wouldn't have survived until the day her two children saw Rama.
Compared to the yet-to-be-born Black Princess Draupadi, both were tragic figures, but while Black Princess Draupadi had the Bhima to avenge her, Sita could only prove her innocence with her death.
At this very moment, inside the Ayodhya Royal Palace, Kavia looked up at the Righteous King sitting on the Throne.
Sorrow and Wrath are not unbearable, but why am I so Wrath right now?
She already knew that Sita would be abandoned while pregnant, but all she had to do was wait for Kusha and Lava to grow up and, together with the Sage Valmiki, enter Ayodhya City and recite the story of the Ramayana...
Even so, Sita was destined to die. She made the earth her witness to prove her innocence, and was then accepted and swallowed by the earth.
The resolute thought ultimately took deep root in Kavia's heart.
Even if it helps, it still can't change the outcome.
Ultimately, everyone involved in this incident is a murderer.
The mothers-in-law's lack of understanding, the heartless people's slander, and the Rishi' silence in the face of Adharma.
Even I am one of them, in countless events.
At the same time, Kavia understands that the real 'murderer' is Lila, is 'karma', and Lila is just like that, making the invisible 'murderer' manifest in all things. But even though he understands this, the sorrow still exists, even if it is just 'Lila', just a drama.
The India Age of Gods of 'Lila' and 'karma' are far too harsh, causing the injustices of Fate to manifest invisibly as injustices among people.
Even though the main focus of the era shifted from gods to humans, the protagonists in the Treta Yuga and Dvapara Yuga were still those at the top of the Caste System.
As the Lord of the Himalayas, he also saw prayers from far more people than those of high Caste. These people made up the majority of the world, and even in the Age of Gods, all they could take with them in their lifetime was their shadow and all they could leave behind were their footprints.
Even if the Snow Mountain turned into ghee, and the river water turned into milk, they would still have no chance of drinking a single drop.
To be fair, Kavia fully understands that this was how things were in human times, but she cannot tolerate this 'darkness' continuing to shroud this land.
What is it that you seek?
That hallucinatory question echoed in Kavia's mind once more.
To think that Savior, or in other words, for the salvation of others, is rather cowardly.
Achieving Buddhahood ahead of schedule?
I'm not sure if it will work out, but even if it does, I'm not willing to sit idly by just because I'm in a 'high position'.
In the Nasuverse, Buddhism is not the only path to enlightenment, and one does not necessarily need to come into contact with Buddhism to become a Buddha. Moreover, both good and evil have the potential to become Buddhas. Therefore, 'Buddha' and 'Bodhisattva' are simply Buddhism terms for certain higher-dimensional beings in the Universe.
Similarly, 'Buddha' and 'Bodhisattva' may have existed before Buddhism. Buddhism, founded by Savior, tends to 'bring the concepts of Buddha and Bodhisattva, as well as the worldview of the three thousand great chiliocosms, to Earth'.
Once one becomes a high-ranking being like 'Buddha', from the perspective of someone who has already attained such a high position, not to mention the suffering within humanity, even humanity itself is just a major fluctuation, and there is no value in intervening.
This outcome was completely unacceptable to Kavia.
"You can't calm down! You have to worry about us! You have to take care of us!"
"Be Wrath, my Lord!"
Have pity on us!
"Be Wrath, my Lord! Have mercy on us! Return to us! Come back, my Lord!"
Shouts from an unknown source echoed in Kavia's ears, and sorrow was about to turn into Wrath.
"Kasyapa, my mind is made up."
Compared to his youthful days, Rama has matured considerably. With his long red hair, he looked down at Kavia, his calm eyes showing no emotion whatsoever. This voice brought Kavia back to her senses.
As the Righteous King, Rama was undoubtedly the strongest during the Treta Yuga period, or even in other eras.
The Ramayana Tulsidas the Divine Ramayana of a Nameless author by the most famous Hindi poet in India in the Sixteenth Century, is the most influential literary work in northern India. For three or four hundred years, its influence in the Hindi-speaking region has even surpassed that of the Rama Charitmanas of Ramayana, which it is based on in classical Sanskrit literature.
The Rama Charitmanas states this:
You are in the heart of the Rakshasa, Rama is in your heart, and Rama's heart contains the entire Universe.
Therefore, if an arrow is shot into the heart of this Rakshasa, the entire Universe will perish along with Ravana.
The commonly known description of Rama, who possessed a Universe containing millions of beings, including countless Shiva, Brahma, the sun, and Sun moon, comes from the "Rama Charitmanas".
Even in the original Ramayana, there is a record of Rama's invincibility.
Rama!
You are the eternal Brahma, the truth of the middle and the end times, you are the highest law in the world, conquering enemies of the past Future, Vishnu Krishna four arms.
You carry a bow, your hair is stiff, you are the highest priority among the original humans, no one can surpass your strength, and you carry a great sword Vishnu Krishna.
You are the general, the village chief, Wisdom, steadfast, forgiving Krishna, and self-disciplined; you are creation and destruction, Vishnu is you.
The Righteous King and the silver-haired youth stared at each other silently, both seemingly unable to back down.
Finally, Kavia spoke first:
"I understand. It was my mistake to doubt your understanding, Rama. Please forgive me."
After apologizing, he remained standing in the same spot.
"Jia, actually I--"
The Righteous King wanted to say something, but then he saw the young man's tears fall onto the palace floor and silently melt away.
So painful, yet so unreal.
In an instant--
The Righteous King saw some kind of illusion.
Beneath the gloomy sky, a sliver of dim light pierced through a gap in the clouds, illuminating the still snow-white Himalayas Mountains.
In the cold, a familiar figure stood quietly atop the Holy Mountain, like a stone statue, silently waiting, its existence there undeniably real.
In this seemingly eternal wait, I listened to countless people chanting their names, to countless desperate cries or devout prayers, but I only watched and did not take any action.
At the same instant, a familiar voice reached the Righteous King's ears:
"... I have no idea."
The figure atop the Holy Mountain gradually overlapped with his friend before him. The Righteous King suddenly became curious: what kind of sights had his friend seen from the Holy Mountain? Was there a decisive difference between the world he saw and the one he saw? Why was Jia weeping?
But now it was too late for the King Rama to think further, because he had already sensed that at this very moment the constellations and Planet of the Universe Constellations were beginning to distort, the Himalayas Mountains, which had stood for thousands of years, were beginning to dissolve rapidly, the heavens and earth were shaking violently, all things were in turmoil, stars were shifting, and the seas were churning.
Rocks erupted from the Himalayas Mountains, instantly cleaving the earth and leaving deep fissures millions of miles away. They then rose into Universe, tearing apart countless stars with unstoppable force, leaving horrific marks on the Divinity shells of those Planet. And much more, everything perished.
In the instant that the commotion shook the Three Worlds, the Righteous King stared blankly at his friend before him, Kavia, who had transformed from silver-haired and blue-eyed to golden-haired and red-eyed at some point.
He possesses a terrifying heat that gives people the illusion that the world is on fire, and his every move can distort and drive the laws of nature mad.
The familiar face no longer held gentleness and smiles, only seriousness and coldness remained.
It was as if she were a golden-red flame, with a crimson pattern on her skin that was neither like pigmentation nor tattoo, making Kavia look like a human-shaped fire, with beautiful golden bells hanging from her ears.
At this moment, like Wrath destruction, it silently speaks to the strongest being, the Righteous King, at the Treta Yuga period.
Moses Sand's wish, which he had cultivated for a million years, and the Wrath of the Lord of the Himalayas that he had prayed for, were finally and thoroughly born in the Three Worlds after a million years, just as this Asura's wish had.
The Wrathful Aspect of Kavia, Lord of the Himalayas
