Guest guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 King Dasaratha was miserable. He has sent Sumanthara, his trusted minister to accompany Rama upto the river bed. As soon as Sumanthara started the King asked him to bring back Rama. He said, Oh Sumanthara, bring my Rama back. I am commanding you to do it. But Sumanthara was in a fix. These situations are known as "Dharma sankat". Rama resolved it by telling Sumathara that the first command was from the king and the second one was from a father. You have to listen only the command of the king and not from a father. These are all intricacies of Dharma. Only a Divine incarnation can direct people along the path of dharma.Sairam.
