Devas approached Ramabhira and requested him to provide the best food. In response, the sage taught Rama about the 500 types of atras that Vishwamitra had received from Lord Shiva and the upasammarams to restore them. Those evil angels appeared before Rama and disappeared saying they would come to help him when he called for them.

Rama's benefit from Vishwamitra was 90 percent more than Vishwamitra's benefit from Rama. All three stayed for a night at the confluence of river Gomati and Sarayu. The sage told Rama about the glories of that river and they left there and joined Siddasiram. The ashram was very pure like the soul of Mangaiyar.

Thirumal did penance there for a long time. Then Mahabali Chakravarti with great strength attracted the heaven and the earth. Tirumal incarnated as Vamana Murti after being conceived in Aditi's womb for a thousand years. Vamana went to Mahabali's Yaga and asked him for 3 feet of soil. Mahabali also agreed to that.

Having measured the earth with one foot and the sky with another, Vamana Perumal asked where to place the 3rd foot. Mahabali bowed down to place the 3rd blow on his head. Mahavishnu pushed him into the underworld with his foot on his head. Rajakumara! This is the place where such a glorious Vamana Murthy incarnated. Very sacred, said the sage.

In that Siddhasiram, the snake and the snake, the peacock and the snake were united without enmity. Lord Rama! Now I will start the yaga, kill the monsters of Tadakai and fulfill the yaga! Saying that, he started the yaga. Many sages helped by collecting and giving the necessary liquids for the yaga. The prayer started with Vedic mantras. Rama stood guard at the southern gate of Yagashala and Lakshmana stood guard at the northern gate. Subaku and Marisen, the people of Tadakai, came with thousands of monsters. The monsters roared with burning flesh, stone, and earth. Rama built a rope to prevent evil objects from falling in the yagya.

Rama killed Subaku with a perfect arrow. He shot an arrow at Morrison. But the arrow fell into the sea. He went to the underworld and got the help of Ravana and came back to life. Rama and Lakshmana killed the demons. The sacrifice of the gods took place for five days. The sacrifice was completed without any traces. After the Yagya, they took bath. Vishwamitra looked at Rama and said, Rama! O God, who watches over all the worlds, how special it is that you watch over this prayer! Sing your praise! He said that.

Birth of Sita

❖ Padmadsan became the ruler of Bharata continent and prayed for a son. Through his devotion and penance, Thirumal appeared before him and asked what boon he desired. Padmadsan asked to be born as a daughter. Thirumal granted him a matulangani fruit and when Padmadsan split it, he was delighted to find that one half contained Selumbithai and the other half Lakshmi.

❖ Padmadsan named his daughter Ammangai, also known as Padmatshi. Padmatshi devoted herself to Tirumala and performed penance. Padmadsan arranged a Swayamvara ceremony for his daughter, where 56 small kings came to participate. Padmadsan looked at the kings in the swayamvara hall and said, "O ministers! Whoever can smear the blue color of the sky on his body, should garland my daughter. This is her wish."

❖ As this was impossible, the kings declared war against Padmadsan. Padmadsan emerged victorious in the battle. While Padmatshi continued her penance, Ravana, who was traveling in the sky, fell in love with her and asked for her hand in marriage. Padmadsan set a condition that if Ravana could apply the blue color seen in the sky on his body, his daughter would garland him. Furious, Ravana fought and killed Padmatsana, and attempted to capture Padmatshi, but she disappeared. Enraged, Sinangkonda Ravana set the city on fire, causing Sri Lanka to burn.

❖ One day, while Ravana was passing through the air, he saw Padmatshi performing penance. He immediately tried to touch her, but she fell into a burning fire. Ravana quickly used water to extinguish the fire and found a large ruby in it, which he picked up and kept in a box for his wife, Mandothari. When he opened the box and presented it to her, he was shocked to find a baby girl inside. He believed her to be a magical girl who could take many forms and raised his sword to kill her, but Mandothari stopped him.

❖ She took many forms and would kill them by turning into Bhadrakali. She advised to put the child in a box and bury it somewhere. Ravana decided to leave the child in the Himalayas where Lord Shiva resided and thought that if he placed her in the middle of the glaciers in a snowy area at the source of the Ganges, the child would freeze to death. But instead, it is said that the snow melted and she was carried away by the Ganges.

❖ The ruler of Mithilapuri, Seerathuja Janakar and his younger brother Kusathuja, who ruled a city called Sangasyam, Gautama's son Sadananda was a priest to Janaka. Janaka Vedanta Vidhakar. While ploughing and praying for fertility, Porokhuval found a box buried by Ravana. Inside the box was a child who was none other than Mahalakshmi herself. Janaka was overjoyed and named her Sita
