In plain words
The forest where Rāma is, is itself Ayodhyā; the Ayodhyā without Rāma is itself the forest. Joy and sorrow come and go one after another, like waves. We must not give in to them in the least. We must not swell up because joy has come; we must not sink down because sorrow has come. We must keep equanimity towards joy and sorrow. Can anyone in the world live without these two?! Rāma is all-knowing and all-powerful. No wild beast and no rākṣasa can harm Him,’ she said, giving her courage. ‘But Sītā too is going to the forest with Rāma! How can she bear these hardships?’ Kausalyā grieved. Rāma too told her, ‘Sītā! The forest is full of thorny bushes. Escaping the wild beasts is very hard. There you will have to undergo much suffering.’ Then Sītā: “Rāma! Can You, who protect this whole world, not take care of Sītā? I do not believe these words. You are all-knowing, all-powerful, all-pervading, the indweller of all. So the wild beasts can do nothing to me. With You beside me, I have no fear at all,” she said. Rāma was overjoyed at Sītā's words.
When Sītā was carried off, Lakṣmaṇa flew into a rage: “Brother! Give the command. In a single moment I will burn all the rākṣasas to ashes,” he said. Then Rāma: ‘Lakṣmaṇa! Neither you nor I need do that. They will burn themselves to ashes. Their own evil qualities will destroy them. Each acts as he does according to his own prārabdha and his own guṇas. They themselves will reap the result their conduct deserves,’ He said, and calmed Lakṣmaṇa.
What you think of as ‘mine’ is not yours
As long as you think, ‘These are mine,’ sorrow will not leave you. ‘These are not mine. All of these are the very forms of God!’ you must feel. You must do all actions for the pleasure of God.
