MEANING
Lord Rama went to the forest in order to fulfill the promise that his father had given to one of his wives (Kaikeyi). In the forest Sita was attracted by the golden deer and Rama went hunting it. At that time, the wicked Ravana kidnapped Sita. Jatayu tried to defend Sita and save her, but was killed by Ravana. Lord Rama then befriended Sugriva and killed Vali, the unrighteous. He crossed the ocean and entered the city of Lanka. He then destroyed the city of Lanka, killed the wicked demons, Ravana and Kumbhakarna and set Sita free. This is the story contained in the Raamayana.
