DECEMBER 2016 Jain Ramayana - By Dr. Renuka Porwal, Mob.: 098218 77327
In the descendent line of Rishabhadeva in Iksavakuvansa, king Adityayasha started Suryavansa, whose great grandson was Dasharath. He married three queens named Kaushalya, Sumitra and Kekai.
In the course of time Kaushalya delivered a boy named Ram.In his young age brave Ram very often fought with cruel people to save the innocent subject.
Ram along with his wife Sita and brother Laksaman went to jungle for 14 years to keep the promise of his father to mother Kekai.
Ravana kidnaped Sita to Lanka and tried to lure her but couldn't succeed. Hanuman reached Ashokvatika and presented her Shri Ram's ring.
Ram won the battle against Ravana and returned to Ayodhya in Pushpak Viman. Many vidyadharas accompanied him.
Sita was sent to the jungle where she gave birth to twins. They recognised their father at the battlefield and returned to Ayodhya. Ram renounced the world after seeing the transient world.
