离了他,连走兽都如此悲痛,那他的臣民、母亲和父亲又将如何活下去呢?罗摩不顾苏曼特拉的意愿将其遣回,然后独自来到天界的河岸。他求一条船,但船夫不肯送来。船夫说:"我知道您的秘密。人人都说您莲花足的尘土是对人起效的灵根,某种法术。一触之下,石头变成了美丽的女子。木头并不比石头更坚硬。我的船也会变成仙人的妻子,飞走,而我将被困在路上。靠这条船我养活全家;我不知道别的营生或买卖。主啊,若您决意渡河,就请让我洗您的莲花足吧。"
- 1.24.480
听到她手镯、腰铃和脚镯的声音,罗摩心中思量,对拉克什曼那说道:仿佛爱神敲响了他的战鼓,决心征服整个世界。说罢,他转身望向那个方向,他的双眼成了悉多面容之月的鸻鸟。他美丽的双眼变得完全静止,仿佛尼米羞愧地离开了他所居住的眼角。他见到悉多的美丽,心中欢喜;在心中赞叹,却说不出话来。仿佛梵天创造了宇宙之后,将自己所有的技艺都展现给世人看了。仿佛他使美丽本身更加美丽,在美的殿堂中点燃了一盏灯的火焰。诗人们已使一切比喻都因滥用而陈旧;我该将维迪哈的公主比作谁呢?
- 1.23.472
夜幕降临,仙人赐令,众人皆行晚祷。讲述故事与古老传说,美丽的夜晚过了两更。大仙于是去就寝,两兄弟开始为他按脚。离欲苦修者为那莲花足修习种种念诵与瑜伽,这两位兄弟仿佛被爱征服,满怀深情地揉按导师的莲花足。仙人再三吩咐,罗怙之主便去就寝。罗什曼那将罗摩的双足抱在胸前按抚,怀着敬畏与爱,获得了至高的安宁。主再三说道:"睡吧,亲爱的。"罗什曼那便将那莲花足贴在胸前躺下。
