The One Hundred and Third Chapter
Oh, how virtuous is Sita, whose sons are so excellent! Oh, how blessed is the woman who will be their wife! ||87||
Thus, many stories were being told, captivating the minds and ears of those women whose eyes were fixed on the one. ||88||
None of them noticed that her cheek, which had been struck by the force of the collision, was wounded by the serpent-like earring. ||8||
Due to the pressure of another woman's arm, someone's breast was raised within the tight bodice, shining like the moon with clouds. ||60||
One woman's anklet fell off, but she didn't notice, but when she turned back, she stumbled and fell because of the same anklet. ||61||
Someone's garment was torn by the sharp teeth of a spider, and an old woman was telling someone about it. ||62||
When someone's mind was distracted, and their body became weak, their dangling arm fell from the force of the shock. ||63||
Someone's necklace, entangled in another woman's ear ornament, broke and fell, scattering like a garland of flowers. ||64||
The eyes of some women remained unblinking as they looked at the two princes, and they remained unblinking even when the princes were far away. ||65||
Malini Vritta
Thus, from the mountain-like mansions, the dust from the fallen flowers of the vine-like women, turned the sky a dusky color. The glorious kings, Rama and the others, entered the auspicious palace, which was extremely beautiful. ||66||
Drut Vilambit Vritta
The people, whose minds are awakened by the sun of virtue, enjoy this kind of festival, which is beyond compare, and is the gathering of beloved beings. ||67||
Thus ends the One Hundred and Third Chapter of the Padma Purana, known as the Rama-Lavana-Ankusha Samagama, narrated by the sage Sri Vishena Acharya. ||103||
Lavana is the one who holds, and Ankusha is the one who wears green clothes like the wings of a parrot. ||6||
