Episode 20 of the conversations between Yogita Pant and Anil Chawla begins at the point when Ram had left for the forest. Maharaj Dashrath returns to the palace, but not of Kaikeyee, of Kausalya. The trauma of the past twenty four hours has made him lose his eyesight. He is in extreme sorrow. Kausalya is also extremely sad. Sumitra, Laxman’s mother, consoles Kausalya. Sumantra, the charioteer of Maharaj Dashrath, who had gone to drop Ram, Laxman and Sita, returns. He conveys the parting messages of Ram and Laxman. Sumantra’s return (without Ram, Sita and Laxman) convinces finally and firmly Maharaj Dashrath and everyone else in Ayodhya that Ram has actually departed for a fourteen-year exile. Maharaj Dashrath now realises the big mistake that he had made when faced with demands of Kaikeyee. Alas, it is too late now!  (Ref. Chapters 43, 44, 58, 59 Ayodhya 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.
