The Ramayana is an old story that makes us think
of the fairy tales we heard as children. Rich sagas and storylines in Hindu
mythology are primarily written in Tamil, Hindi, and Sanskrit. The Ramayana,
Mahabharata, Vedas, and Gita are among the thousands of written scriptures that
are the most well-known. Throughout the Ramayana, there are numerous characters
who performed noteworthy roles but are never mentioned. Rama, Lakshman, Bharat,
Dashrath, Kekeyi, Kaushalya, Sita, Sumitra, Manthra, Hanuman, Sugreev, Vibhishan
are all well known. Look at some of the lesser-known characters and their roles
in the Ramayana in the following paragraphs.
Kewat-
Boatman Kewat has a strong devotion to Lord Rama. Rama had to cross the Ganga
river once while he was in exile, and Kewat was the perfect choice. .however,
Kewat demanded that before allowing Lord Rama to board his boat, he must first
wash his feet. He then used a boat to transport Sita, Lakshman, and Rama over
the Ganga.
They arrived at the bank. Kewat declined the ring that Lord Rama offered. Lord,
both of us do the same work, Kewat replied. From one bank of the Ganges to the
other, I transport people. You take people on their life's adventure over the
Sansaara (Bhav-sagar) ocean. What is the best way for you to pay me? Lord! So
if you could, kindly take me through Sansaar Saagar when the time comes. That'd
be your way of coming back to me.
Sabri-
Since she was a young girl, Shabari has been a devoted lover of Lord Rama. She
was raised in a tribal family and eventually taken shelter at Rishi Matang's
ashram, where she worked with a sincere devotion. In his final days, Rishi
Matang gave her the blessing that one day Lord Rama will personally come to
visit her.
Following that, she cleaned her home, planted flowers, and picked berry fruits
to welcome Rama every day. Lord Rama finally came to her ashram one day after
all of her waiting. She cleaned his feet with water because it was a very happy
occasion for her.
She then presented him with berry fruits after sampling each one and giving
Rama only the delicious ones. Rama happily took them while admiring her sincere
love. Then he told Lakshmana that nothing could be as precious as those berries
if they were offered with real devotion. Even gurus struggle to reach the
highest levels of devotion that she attained.
Urmila-
The Ramayana says that Urmila was Lakshmana's wife. Urmila has been
categorised by Rabindranath Tagore as one of the underappreciated heroines of
Indian literature, which is entirely appropriate. Her greatness is similar to
Sita's, and she satisfies all the requirements for the perfect wife. She
endured 14 years apart from her husband, but she understood that Lakshmana
couldn't avoid Rama and that he couldn't take her with him into exile.
Lakshmana is also said to have spend fourteen years awake. As a result,
according to some versions of the narrative, Lakshmana was told to go to sleep
by the Goddess of Sleep (Nidra Devi). Urmila gave her consent to Nidra Devi's
request to sleep for the next 14 years. Her opposition to Rama's decision to
send Sita to the forest is also claimed to have been the only one, according to
story.
Jatayu-
Jatayu, the vulture king and Dasaratha's companion, was a Noble Bird who had an
important role to perform. When Ravana attempted to kidnap Lady Sita using the
"Puspak Viman" while Rama and Lakshmana were away, he bravely fought
to save her. The big sky ranger raced at Ravana in anger and made every effort
to stop him. Ravana shot one of his wings during the battle, yet he still used
the other to fight. He fell to the ground hurt after having his second wing
severed. He was the one who informed Rama about Sita's kidnapping.
Jambavan ji-
Jambvan the king of the bears, a famous, knowledgeable, and skilled figure,
assisted Rama in finding his wife Sita and defeating Ravana. He had previously
worked as Sugreeva's advisor and was a crucial guide both during the fight and
the Sita's search mission. Jambvan advised Hanuman to travel to Lanka by way of
the sea and search for Sita. He also told Hanuman his birth story, which helped
to remind him of his prowess.
Sampati-
Sampati, the eldest brother of Jatayu, was important to Sita's search.
Sampati and Jatayu once went closer to the Sun before realising it was very
hot. Sampati covered his little brother under the cover of his wings. Because
of that tragedy, he was left without wings and led a miserable life. While
Rama, Lakshmana, and Hanuman went looking for Sita, they were followed by an Vanar
sena. The distance between them and Lanka, where Sita was believed to be, was
100 Yojans, according to Sampati. After hearing the good news, the army began
getting ready to march into Lanka.
Angada-
The Monkey King of Bali, Vanara-Raj, and his wife Tara had a son named Angada.
After Bali's passing, he was Sugreeva's nephew and later his stepson.
Vanara-Sena showed him a great deal of loyalty and respect (Vanar sena). He was
given the task by Sugreeva to look for Lady Sita in the southern regions. Just
before the battle, he was also sent as an ambassador to Ravana's court to urge
him to find a peaceful settlement and hand Sita back over to Rama. Ravana
disagreed and tried to harm Angada instead. Even so, Angada was so powerful
that nobody from Lanka, not even Ravana, was able to pull him from his
position.
Nala-Neer-
In order for Rama's Sena to bridge the river and get to Lanka to save Sita, Nala
and Neela, two Vanaras built and engineered the Rama Setu from Rameswaram in
India to Lanka .As the son of Vishwakarma, the architect of the Gods, Nala had
remarkable architectural abilities, and numerous interpretations of the
Ramayana attribute exclusive credit to him for building the bridge.
Nonetheless, Ramcharitra Manas gives credit to both of the brothers for
designing and constructing the bridge with Vanara Sena's assistance.
Garuda-
In several Hindu mythological epics, such as the Ramayana, Garuda is
considered as the king of birds and is also known to be Lord Vishnu's vehicle.
As Meghanada bound Rama and Lakshmana with the deadly snake's rope in Yuddha
Kanda, Garuda bravely rescued. In several Hindu mythological epics, such as the
Ramayana, Garuda is considered as the king of birds and is also known to be
Lord Vishnu's vehicle.
