Re: Doubts on Golden Deer

From the Bhakti List Archives

Srinath Venkatakrishnan • February 9, 2003 


Dear Smt Vasantha,
My question was why Ravana asked Maricha to go in Golden Deer form. 
And why did he go personally to get the deer?
Iam not getting your point  "Maaricha was
trained only call "Raama". Maricha never called "Raamaa" But note that he called "hey lakshmana ..hey sita.." after rama bowed him down.

Thanks,

Srinath

like a simple man to please his wife for a simple
request. Even in most difficult times, Rama being 
man, wanted to please his wife in very a personal way.
That is the reason why he himself went. Secondaly,
Ravana knew that only Rama will go after the deer and
therefore had instructed Maareecha to Call"Raama" if
and when struck by an arrow. obviously,Maaricha was
trained only call "Raama". 

Adiyen Srivatsan.
