Sītā begs Rāvaṇa to kill her so that she may join her husband in death,...

IMAGE number
BL3283078
Image title
Sītā begs Rāvaṇa to kill her so that she may join her husband in death, but Rāvaṇa is summoned to meet his general Prahasta and his ministers, leaving Sītā to be disabused of her belief that Rāma is dead by the compassionate rāká¹£asÄ« Saramā. Rāvaṇa orders the beating of the drums to summon his forces, which are crowded behind the walls. His maternal grandfather Mālyavān advises surrendering Sītā, and lists the terrible portents that have been seen in the city, including interbreeding of animals, but to no avail. Rāma confers with his allies - the monkeys headed by SugrÄ«va, the bears under their king Jāmbavān, and the friendly demons under VibhÄ«á¹£aṇa - as to the best plan of assault, while the monkeys begin to besiege the city.
