**38**
In the forest exile, Lakshmana takes utmost care of Rama and Sita's well-being. He arranges for their food and other necessities. He is an embodiment of valor, with no trace of fear in his heart. He is completely devoted to Rama's commands. If there is any talk of marriage or other such matters at any king's court during the exile, he clearly states, "Ask my elder brother." During the war in Lanka, when Lakshmana is injured, Rama is deeply distressed and weeps in sorrow. However, his grief is alleviated by bathing in the waters of the Vishalya river. He obtains Ravana's chakra and uses it to destroy Ravana. Through his conquests, he establishes his dominion over the three divisions of Bharat. He is so devoted to Rama that he leaves his body only upon hearing the false news of Rama's death. Although he has a fiery nature, his fierceness is considered admirable in the presence of his elder brother, who is an ocean of composure.
**[9] Bharat**
King Bharat is the son of Dasharatha and Kaikeyi. He is far removed from his mother's deceit and pettiness. Kaikeyi did everything to make him king, but he refused to accept the throne. He is always seen with a melancholic expression, longing for home. During Rama's exile, he diligently ruled the kingdom. He is a protector of social conduct and decorum. After Rama's return from exile, he renounced worldly life and embraced asceticism.
**[10] Hanuman**
Hanuman's association with Rama's story is like a jewel-studded ornament. Valmiki's description of Hanuman is incongruous and an inadequate portrayal of a great soul. He is the crown jewel of the Vanara lineage, a Tadbhava-Moksha-gami (one who is destined for liberation) Vidhyadhara (celestial being). Describing him as a mere monkey is an unwise and unappealing choice. His father is Pavananjay (the wind god) and his mother is Anjana. Anjana endured immense suffering for 22 years due to her husband's absence, and later faced the harsh treatment of her mother-in-law, Ketumati, in the forest. Reading about her hardships would move any compassionate person to tears. Acharya Ravishena's portrayal of Anjana's character evokes a powerful stream of pathos, significantly enhancing the grandeur of the original text. After Sita's abduction, Hanuman comes into contact with Rama and serves him with utmost dedication until Rama's return to Ayodhya. Hanuman is a great soul with a long lifespan.
**[11] Vibhishana**
Vibhishana is Ravana's younger brother. He is an embodiment of righteousness and ethics. Having learned from a seer that "Ravana's death will be at the hands of Dasharatha and Janaka's descendants," he comes to Bharat to destroy them. However, Narada's grace ensures that Dasharatha and Janaka are informed beforehand, so they leave their palaces and install effigies of themselves. Vibhishana, mistaking the effigies for the real Dasharatha and Janaka, cuts off their heads with his sword, feeling satisfied. But when his conscience awakens, he deeply regrets his actions. When Ravana abducts Sita and takes her to Lanka, Vibhishana tries to reason with him, urging him to release her. But Ravana refuses to listen and even insults Vibhishana. This leads Vibhishana to leave Ravana and join Rama. Rama is deeply impressed by Vibhishana's morality. Thus, we see Ravana and Vibhishana, born from the same mother, as contrasting figures, representing darkness and light respectively.
