๐ŸŒบ Bhagvati Sita — The Cosmic Flame๐ŸŒบ

 She is not born, she does not fade,

She is the light from which light is made.

Not bound by time, nor held by fate,

She is the door, the key, the gate.

๐Ÿฆš

She is the pulse within all life,

The silent fire, the thundered strife.

She is Mahakundalini, rising high—

Coiled in truth beneath the sky.

๐Ÿ’Ž

She is the breath in every tree,

The force that sets the oceans free.

She is the seed, the root, the sound,

The spinning star, the sacred ground.

Her glance can birth a thousand suns,

Her feet outpace creation’s runs.

She is the womb from which all flows,

The path no lesser being knows.

๐Ÿ™

She is Purna Lakshmi, whole and true,

Not a portion — she is the view.

She is the fire that dharma keeps,

She wakes the dead, she guards the weeps.

๐Ÿซ€

She is Sundari, beauty rare,

With Chandika’s storm in every stare.

She is Janani, the cosmic stream,

The pulse beneath each sacred dream.

She is not calm — she is command,

With grace in eye and sword in hand.

She burns the false, she lifts the pure,

She is the wound, the flame, the cure.

๐Ÿ‘‘

Her tears are not of sorrow weak,

But oceans when the gods can’t speak.

She cries to cleanse, not to fall—

Her weeping shakes the heavens’ hall.

๐Ÿ’

Her laughter sows the stars above,

Her silence sings eternal love.

She is Mahฤmลซla Prakแน›ti, wide—

All tattvas rest in her deep tide.

She is the will behind the laws,

She holds the threads in every cause.

She is the mountain, she the mist,

The lotus-bloom, the serpent’s twist.

๐Ÿ’

She is Karunamayi, kind and vast,

Who sees all future, present, past.

She is the strength in woman’s pain,

The one who breaks the karmic chain.

๐Ÿชท

She is Bhudevi, firm and bright,

The golden core of Sattva’s light.

Arya, Tapasvini, full of fire,

She makes the human soul aspire.

She walks the world, yet stays beyond,

The stars and skies to her respond.

Her voice is wind, her arms are flame,

Each universe bears just her name.

๐ŸŒ•

When demons rose and hope grew thin,

She roared the roar that stilled all sin.

Not waiting, hiding, bound, or small—

She rose and shattered demon’s call.

⭐️

With tenfold arms and crimson glare,

She shook the roots of all despair.

She danced upon the fearsome night,

And made the darkness birth new light.

So call her Devi, call her Sita,

Call her Ramaa, or Jagatmata.

She is not soft, nor only strong,

She is the note of truth in song.

⚡️

She is the one from whom all rise,

The storm, the prayer, the lullabies.

She is the queen that kings obey,

The dawn before the break of day.

She is the path, the goal, the flame,

And every world chants Sita’s name.

O Sita Mฤtฤ, O soul divine—

All forms, all love, all light is thine.

Jaya Sita-Rลซpiแน‡i, form of all,

Jaya Dharma-Murti, standing tall!

Jaya Mithileshwari, proud and bright,

Jaya Bhagvati, flame and light!๐ŸŒท๐Ÿฆš๐Ÿชท๐Ÿ’Ž❤️

If the real Sita was never kidnapped, then why did Rama question her character?

 This question seems to be based on Adhyatma Ramayana.

Creation of Maya Sita

Lord Shiva said—'Oh Parvati! Here, becoming aware of all the conspiracies of Ravana, Sri Ram advised Sita when they were alone, 'Oh Sita! Listen to what I have to tell you. Oh the auspicious one! Ravana will come to you disguised as a mendicant. Hence, by my orders, you must enter the holy fire leaving behind your lookalike shadow in this hut, and stay there in the fire in an invisible form for one year. After that, after the killing of Ravana, you shall get back to me once again.’

Hearing these words of Sri Ram, Sita did as she was told. She became invisible in fire, leaving behind a shadowy Sita.

  • Canto 7, Aranya Kanda, Adhyatma Ramayana.

It was this Maya Sita whom Ravana kidnapped.

After Ravana was killed, it was Maya Sita who did Agni pravesha, not real Sita. When Maya Sita entered the fire, she disappeared and the real Sita was brought out by Agni Deva

Oh Hari (Sri Ram)! You had created an illusionary/shadowy Sita for the express purpose of destroying (i.e., killing) Ravana along with his sons, kiths and kins and comrades etc. Oh Lord! By doing so, you have removed the burden of this earth.The illusionary/shadowy Sita who was like an image of her real self has vanished after having accomplished the task for which she was created.’ Hearing these words of the fire God, Sri Ram worshipped and honoured him with great delight and a joyful heart and then he gladly accepted Janki (Sita) who was most happy and cheerful (at this happy turn of events).

  • Canto 13, Lanka kanda, Adhyatma Ramayana.

So Lord Rama never questioned Sita’s character in Adhyatma Ramayana. The fire ordeal was merely a way to switch back Maya Sita with the real Sita.

What are some important facts about Sita in Hinduism that devotees should be aware of?

 MAA SITA.

Maa Sita, who is the incarnation of Lakshmi, is a form of Durga. She herself is the supreme power of all universes and the source of wealth and glory.

  • Sita ( เคธीเคคा ), also known as Siya, Janaki and Maithili, is a Hindu goddess and the female protagonist of the Hindu epic Ramayana.
  • Sita is the consort of Ram (the avatar of god Vishnu) and is regarded as an avatar of goddess Lakshmi.
  • She is the chief goddess of the Ramanandi Sampradaya and is the goddess of beauty and devotion.

According to SITA Upanishad :—

The Sita Upanishad (เค‰เคชเคจिเคทเคค्) is a medieval era Sanskrit text and a minor Upanishad of Hinduism.

“In which goddess Sita is extolled as the Ultimate Reality of the Universe (Brahman), the ground of Being (Spirituality), and material cause behind all manifestation.”

“The Upanishad identifies Sita with primordial Prakriti (nature) and her three powers, asserts the text, are manifested in daily life as will (iccha), action (kriyฤ) and knowledge (jnana).

Teachings and inspiration from the life of Mother Sita :—

“The extraordinary abilities of Goddess Sita transcend her role as a mythical figure, providing devotees with timeless lessons in devotion, sacrifice, purity, and inner strength. Her story continues to captivate and inspire individuals, serving as a reminder of the boundless power of love and righteousness.”

  • Her devotion -

According to the Ramacharitmanas, Goddess Sita was fully devoted towards her husband Lord Ram and that shows the commitment in the relationship.

  • Humility and Grace -

Despite her royal background, the humility and grace in her actions teaches us the value of modesty.

  • Adherence to Dharma -

Throughout her life, she just followed a path of righteousness and adhered to her Dharma which sets a perfect example of leading a life according to the principle.

  • Faithfulness -

Goddess Sita's unwavering faith and loyalty towards Shri Ram is a perfect example of trust in relationships

Ideal woman and guru :—

She is the incarnation of Lakshmi, goddess of prosperity, wealth, and beauty in Hinduism.

Sita is portrayed as the ideal wife and woman

Mother Sita is considered the guru of Ram and Hanuman.

Shri Ram did not even once raise the bow and arrow in front of Mother Sita nor did he kill any Datia.

Description of Mata Sita in Ramayan:-

  • Sita looks very beautiful. Sita was more beautiful than Srirama in one aspect, though they were made for each other in looking. Both of them had stunning beauty.
  • The difference was Srirama is Pundarikaaksha, and Sita is Asithekshana. Pundarikaaksha means having white eyes like the white lotus flower. Asithekshana means glowing with black coloured looks.

“Sita is Kanakavarnaangi. She is of Golden colour. She is Neelakesi (black hair), Bimbosthi (bright scarlet colour like Tindoora or Bryonia), Sumadhya (beautiful waist), Padmapalaasakshi (having eyes like Lotus petals)”

MAA SITA AND SRI RAM

  • Sita said that, “Ananya Raghavenaaham Bhaskarena Prabhasa yathhaa ”

she told that she was not separate from Srirama, as sunlight could not be separated from the Sun.

  • Sri Ram also said that “Ananyaa hi Mayaa Sita, Bhaskarena Prabhaa yathhaa “

“Sita can not be separated from me as the sunlight from the Sun.”

What was the motive behind Lord Rama's taking Sita's fire test?

 The purpose of Lord Rama's fire test of Sita was to prove her purity for the welfare of his subjects.

The reason behind this:

  • When Sita returned to Ayodhya after being imprisoned by Ravana for a long time, some people in the society started doubting her.
  • If Sita was not made to undergo the fire test, people would start saying that Rama is a fool and lustful person.
  • Lord Rama believed that Ravana could not torture Sita who was protected by her own radiance.
  • Lord Rama wanted that in Kaliyuga, people should not abandon their wives on the basis of suspicion.

The process of fire test:

  • Lord Rama lit a fire between him and Sita and asked Sita to enter it.
  • As soon as Sita entered the fire, Agni Dev appeared there with the real Sita.
  • Sita's shadow got absorbed in that fire and Agni Dev appeared in front of Lord Rama with the real Sita.
