The Ramayana
“In Rama’s sabha When Rama was crowned king in Ayodhya, the rishis of the four quarters came to bless him. Kaushika, Yavakrita, Gargya, Gadava, Kanva, and Muni Medhatithi’s son: all these holy ones who dwelt in the east came to the sabha of the House of the Sun. From the west came Nrisangu, Kavasa, Dhaumya, and Kauseya. From the south came Swastayatreya, Namuchi, Pramuchi, Agastya, Sumukha, and Vimukha. From the north, and with their disciples, came Vasishta, Kashyapa, Viswamitra, Atri, Gautama,... Jamadagni, and Bharadvaja: seven sages.
Led by Agastya, the rishis were announced and led into Rama’s sabha. They were radiant as the rising sun, and Rama offered them padya and arghya. Soon they were seated in his ancient court on darbhasanas covered in deerskin.
One of the wise said, “We have heard about your great exploit in Lanka, Rama; we are amazed that Lakshmana and you could kill Ravana’s son Indrajit.”
In mild surprise, Rama asked, “Munis, does it surprise you more that we killed Indrajit than that we killed his father Ravana and his uncle Kumbhakarna?MoreLess
