The illustrious Sage Valmiki
describes the splendor of the Kingdom of Ayodhya, there was a righteous King
Sagara from the clan of Ikshvaku Dynasty, and this glorious clan was initiated
by Prajapathis and his sixty thousand sons.
The legend of Ramayana originated from the highly revered and victorious
clan of Ikshvaku. This great epic
Ramayan narrates about the Dharma/righteousness, Artha/prosperity and
Kama/desires should not be overlooked.
There was a grand Kingdom of Kosala situated on the river banks of
Sarayu, It was flourished with rich natural resources and the people were lived
a blissful life in this Kindgom. This
renowned city was built by Manu, who was the foremost ruler of mankind. This
glorious city has well equipped freeways of 12 Yojana at length and 3 Yojana as
its breadth. The royal pathways are
stunningly marvelous bedecked with flowers.
King Dasaratha made this great city as his abode, just like Lord Indra
made heaven as his abode. This great
city has classy portico, stylish gateways, finely constructed buildings etc.. stacked
with all kind of machineries, weapons, bastion and armaments and the
inhabitants were craftsmen, writers and spokespersons. The city of Ayodhya accommodates dancers and
theater personalities; it has beautiful gardens full of mango trees and its
fort-wall as a cincture to it. This city is impossible to trespass or invade
surrounded by the deepest moats as its protective shield; it has immense
collection of horse, camels, cows and elephants. The Kings of neighboring cities pay their
dues to City of Ayodhya. This great
city has attractive buildings and skyscrapers decked with precious gem which
has the close resemblance to the City of Amaravati, capital city of Lord
Indra. This city has the design of a game board,
where heaps of gems are crammed, beautiful women flawlessly moves around
through the multi-storied buildings like a picture square. The dwelling places constructed in the land
are well utilized and there was no famine and the water tastes like sugarcane
juice. This unique city reverberated
with the sounds of divine instruments like drums, cymbals, Veena, Mrudangam,
etc…it was filled with the sages, ascetic and righteous people on Earth. The people were so compassionate and skillful
in archery; they don’t attack a person who has no predecessor or successor in
the family and they don’t target their opponent by listening to the sound. They attack lions, tigers and wild boars with
their sharp weapons or by hand. This
