Episode 65 of the conversations between Yogita Pant and Anil Chawla describes the events after Hanuman enters Ashok Vaatika, which was a huge place with large number of trees. The vaatika had a mountain, a river, many ponds and even some palaces. The vaatika had a huge meditation hall with a thousand pillars. Hanuman discovered a young woman near the meditation hall.  The woman was being guarded by a number of ferocious women warriors and was clearly very sad. She seemed to be weeping. She was wearing a yellow saree which had apparently not been washed for months. Hanuman thought that this beautiful woman must be Seeta. But Hanuman wanted to be sure before proceeding further. So, he sat on a tree and waited for over twenty-four hours patiently. At the end of Hanuman’s second night in Lanka, he saw Raavan come to the sad woman. Raavan addressed the woman as Seeta and pleaded with her to accept him as her husband. A long conversation took place between Raavan and Seeta which ended with Raavan telling Seeta that she had two months to decide. Raavan told Seeta that at the end of two months either she would become his wife or his cooks would cut her into pieces and cook the meat. (Ref. Chapters 14-22, Sundar Kand, Shreemad Valmikiy Ramayan) ***** श्रीमद्वाल्मीकीय रामायण विश्व का प्राचीनतम ग्रन्थ है। इसे आदिग्रन्थ कहा गया है। इसमें राम के जीवन का विस्तारपूर्वक वर्णन किया गया है। इसमें राम का चित्रण एक ऐसे मनुष्य के रूप में किया गया है जो संघर्ष करता है, परिश्रम करता है, जीवन के द्वन्द्वों का सामना करता है, अपने सहयोगियों एवं निकटस्थ व्यक्तियों से चर्चा करता है और विद्वतजनों से मार्गदर्शन प्राप्त करता है। वह धर्म एवं  आदर्श के पथ से कभी हटता नहीं है। उन्हें मर्यादा पुरुषोत्तम कहा गया है। उनके जीवन का हर प्रसंग शिक्षाप्रद है, प्रेरणादायक है। चर्चा की इस श्रृंखला का उद्देश्य दर्शकों को राम के जीवन से परिचित कराना है। राम के जीवन को जान कर, समझ कर और आचरण में उतार कर हम अपने जीवन को सुखद एवं समृद्ध बना सकते हैं। समस्त सुधीजनों को अनेकानेक शुभकामनाओं के साथ विनम्रतापूर्वक समर्पित। Valmiki Ramayan is the original epic which narrates the story of Ram.
