TIRUVIL WAMALA - THE SEAT OF RAMA & LAKSHMANA

Lakshman his younger brother possesses, yet some other traits, none but he alone can stand comparison. If pithruvakya palana, Prajanuranjaka paripalana and Dharma nirati lived a splendid full life in Rama, Sodaradharma and, chitta suddhi reached the acme of perfection in Lakshmana His immaculate exemplary selfless fraternal affection finds no superiors, much less peers. Rarest, purest, noblest and holiest was the bhathruprema that spilled at his every step that made the soil sacred and parents adorable. Listen! When Rama decided to implement his father’s word of a 14 - year-exile; he came to the momentous conclusion of following him like the shadow, despite dissuasions from all sides. 

What a sense of duty! How much brotherly affection!! Will such sacrifice manifest again? Leaving his young comely loving wife and royal luxurious life, he embraced forest life, full of perils and constant hardships; did not eat a single meal throughout the 14-year period, according to one legend, and served the couple in the roles of friend, guide, sentinel, servant and what not.
