Summary of contents: Consoling Kausalya in her grief over the impending exile of Shri Rama. Prince Lakshmana opposes the idea of Shri Rama’s leaving for the forest and, censuring Dasharatha, makes up his mind to accompany his eldest brother. Kausalya too deters Shri Rama from going into exile branding Kaikeyis command as unjust. Shri Rama, however, justifies the command on the ground of its being countenanced by the emperor and requests his mother to grant him leave and perform auspicious rites connected with his departure
