In plain words
‘Never mind if I have none. I must give a little to others,’ you must foster this feeling. The true spirit of sacrifice must come.
Bharata's spirit of sacrifice is without equal
In the holy Rāmāyaṇa, the spirit of sacrifice Bharata showed is without equal. When Rāma went to the forest to fulfil His father's word, the coronation was to have taken place for Bharata, as his mother Kaikeyī wished. Even so, holding that the coronation to the kingdom must take place for his elder brother Rāma alone, and that this was Dharma, he went to the forest with his mothers and the retinue to pray Rāma to come to Ayodhyā. Seeing Bharata coming from far off with army and retinue, Lakṣmaṇa grew very angry. ‘Bharata's mother sent us to the forest, and now her son is coming to make it impossible for us to live even in these forests. I will not stand for this. I will kill Bharata,’ and he shook with rage. Then Rāma, calming him: ‘Dear one! Lakṣmaṇa! Has a longing for the kingdom come over you, is that it? If you want it, go and rule the kingdom. Bharata is not coming to attack us, as you imagined. Bharata is a man of great sacrifice, a man of noble character. The spirit of sacrifice he has is found in no one else. Even when at last his mother wished the coronation for him, her son went on rejecting it. Bharata is a man of great virtue,’ so He won him over.
When Bharata came to the forest, Rāma at once asked, ‘Dear Bharata! Are mother and father well?’ He did not, though, ask whether His own mother Kausalyā was well. ‘Is Kaika well?’ He asked, enquiring after the welfare of Kaika, His stepmother. At the mention of Kaika's name, Bharata was seized by an anger he could not hold. ‘Only because of that wicked woman have You been cast into the forests. Chī! Do not speak that very name before me,’ and he was grieved. Then Rāma called Bharata near: ‘Bharata! Your mother is very great. It was your mother herself who spread Rāma's good name through the world!
