Shree Rama Preyashi By Guru Smt. Meera Das at Odissi International Festival 2020

When Ravana disguised as a Sadhu picked Devi Sita and carried her away to Lanka to keep her guarded by the demon women in the Ashokabana, Rama Bhakta Hanumaan made his way through far oceans and lands to search for Sita and made his way to Ashokabana where Sita stood is agony and distress.
Hanuman approached Sita in the most careful ways not to scare her, but as Sita suddenly had a glance of him she was frightened and taken aback. But when Hanuman showed her the signet ring of Lord Rama she finally was convinced with everything that Hanumaan had to express to her about Lord Rama being alive and how he would come to take her along with him.
Hanuman tells sita to give him some insignia of hers for Lord Rama as he sent one for her so that Rama feels the joy of love and rememberence of Sita. Devi sita very thoughtfully realises she only has one ornament adorned that is her Mathamani, the head ornament which she removes and hand over to Hanuman as a token of her love and awaiting her Lord. She sends it in all faith that her lord will see it and come to rescue her soonest.....
These verses have been penned by Hanuman Bhakta Sri Gopinath Parida.
