In the Padma Purana,
Andrat,
Then Dasharatha, having heard the entire account, embraced Bhamandala, his eyes filled with tears. ||136||
His hair stood on end with joy, and the assembly was filled with tears of happiness. ||137||
Seeing his brother with a radiant face, Sita, like a deer, ran towards him, her arms raised, crying, "Oh brother! I see you for the first time today!" She embraced him and wept for a long time, regaining her composure. ||138-139||
Rama, Lakshmana, and other relatives also embraced Bhamandala with joy and spoke to him with respect. ||140||
After paying respects to the great sage, all the celestial beings and earth-dwellers emerged from the garden, filled with joy and adorned with great beauty. ||141||
After consulting with Bhamandala, Dasharatha quickly sent a letter to King Janaka through a celestial being. ||142||
Bhamandala's excellent chariot was coming through the sky, carried by swans and surrounded by many celestial warriors. ||143||
Then, taking Bhamandala with him, Dasharatha, with great glory, entered Ayodhya. ||144||
Dasharatha, the king with inexhaustible wealth, celebrated a great festival with all the people, delighted by the arrival of Bhamandala. ||145||
Bhamandala stayed comfortably in the beautiful, spacious, high palace, adorned with ponds and gardens, as instructed by Dasharatha. ||146||
At that great festival, Dasharatha gave so much in charity that the poor people of the earth were freed from poverty, receiving more than they desired. ||147||
Meanwhile, the celestial messenger, swift as the wind, delivered the news of his son's arrival, instantly delighting King Janaka. ||148||
King Janaka, reading the letter and firmly believing its truth, was filled with immense joy. His whole body trembled with happiness. ||149||
He asked the celestial being, "Oh noble one! Is this a dream? Or is this a real experience? Come, be happy, be happy! I will embrace you today." ||150||
