Now, how will the Indra flaunt his prosperity ? How will
the king’s prosperity fade away ? The Indra felt that he was
pale and meagre in front of the king. He thought “, I do not
have the calibre of accepting Charitra. King Dasharnabhadra
worked wonders and fulfilled his resolution of bowing down
to Lord with incomparable devotion.”

The Indra immediately folded his hands and addressed the
king, “O saint ! I had come to defeat your devotion. For that
I got this grand procession of 64000 elephants. Inspite of this,
I lost and you won. My prosperity is only material wealth.
But your prosperity i.e. renounciation of material weath is the
real internal prosperity. Howmuchever external prosperity I
possess, it is nothing in front of the spiritual prosperity.”

You have won by making this great sacrifice and by your
resolulation. I heartly congratulate you This was king
Dasharnabhadra’s courage to keep his mind steady and achieve
the desired result. He had the courage to maintain his sthita
Pragyata.

May this virtue of sthitaPragyata glorify the lives of many
people.

The main characters of our story Ramachandraji and Sita
possessed high level of sthitaPragyata.

We have taken a glimpse into Sitaji’s life and contemplated
on the various in cidents that she had to face. To ensure that
they leave an impact on our lifestyle, we should keep a brief
note of such incidents and its morals such so that we can refer
them on and off. Going through them at frequent intervals
ensures that they inspire our thoughts, actions and words.

Here once again we take a quick trip through Sitaji ’s life
and remember her life events in short.
