… And the story leads us to a certain year in this

exile where one day Ram and Sita and Lakshman

are walking and going towards another place. So

just Ram turned to Lakshman and said,

“Lakshman, please get me, fetch me some water

to drink. I'm very thirsty.” He said, “Might as well

you go. Why should I go every time? Can't you

go and get the water?” He says, “Oh yeah, come

on, we'll go.” So they all go in search of water.

Then after that, after some a day or two said,

“Lakshman, it's time now. I'm hungry. Can you

go and beg some?” He says, “Why don't you go?

Why should I go every time? Why can't you go

and do these things?” “Yes, let's all go!” So they

all went.

What happened is after some week of this, all of

a sudden Lakshman realises what has happened.

Had happened to him. And just while they were

walking he falls at the feet of Ram and says,

“Pardon me.

I didn't know what had happened to me. Why

should I have said such things to you?” He says,

“Lakshman Get up! It's not your fault.” He

embraced him and said, “Don't worry about it.

It's not your fault. It's the fault of the terrain and

the environment that is there.” You see how it can

affect us?"
