Article Writing Homework Help

Need help with my writing homework on Analysis of The Ramayana Story. Write a 1500 word paper answering; King Dasaratha grows old and after noticing omens that were suggesting his end was near, he decided to step down and make Rama the new king. Manthara, a maid-servant, does not like this decision and ends up talking the king’s youngest wife, Kaikeyi, into also turning against the king’s decision. Kaikeyi tells the king that she wants her son, Bharata, to be the king, and not Rama. She also requested that Rama is banished from the kingdom for a period of no less than fourteen years. As a righteous and honest man who had previously promised Kaikeyi two boons (promises which must be granted), the king had no other choice but to agree with Kaikeyi’s choice. Rama was immediately told that he would in fact not be made the king and that he was banished from the kingdom. Lakshmana decides to again leave with Rama, and although Rama persisted against Sita leaving with him as well, she ignored his pleas and stayed by his side.&nbsp. “And it is my duty, my dharma, as a wife to be at your side. How can I live without you? I must join you.” (Tominberg). King Dasaratha lost the will to live shortly after Rama, Lakshmana and Sita left the kingdom, and died. Several days later, the three journeyers found themselves hunting in a forest far outside of the kingdom, when a great army led by Rama and Lakshmana’s brother Bharata approached them. The brothers assumed that Bharata had found them and was going to attempt to kill them, but quite conversely, Bharata said, “My heart is filled with grief and shame. Grief for the loss of our noble father. Shame for being offered the throne that you rightfully deserve. Come back to Ayodhya and be our king.” (Tominberg). Rama tells Bharata that this cannot be done, because he vowed not to return for fourteen years, and he would not allow himself to break that vow. Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita continue to travel, making their way towards finding Ravana. Religious men who they came across in the forest told them of Ravana’s demons and the horrors that they had done. Rama and Lakshmana promised to kill all these demons.&nbsp. &nbsp.
