After sometimes after their marriage, the father of Rama, the old King Dashratha decided to crown his eldest son, Rama as the king but his third and youngest wife, Queen Keikeyi opposed. She wanted her son Bharata to become king. A long time before, the Queen keikeyi saved the King’s life and in return the King promised to fulfil her two wishes. The Queen had never uses her two wishes.
She reminded the King of the two wishes and wished to banished Rama for fourteen years of exile and crown Bharata as the king instead. The King was shocked but he knew that truth is the highest Dharma and he had to fulfil the promise to his wife. So Rama went to exile happily, knowing that to obey and serve his father was the highest duty of a son.

He was joined by Sita and Lakshmana. When he asked Sita not to follow him, she says, “The forest where you dwell is Ayodhya for me and Ayodhya without you is a veritable hell for me.”

    In Merriam-Webster’s 11th Edition Collegiate Dictionary the term “epic hero” is defined as: a character who is brave and noble, and also has many great achievements. This defines the current Dalai Lama(Lhamo Dondrub) perfectly in my opinion, for several reasons. He exemplifies all characteristics of an Epic hero, better yet he’s an Ultimate Hero. He has fought against communism for years peacefully and won a Nobel Peace Prize because of those noble actions. He continued to aim for a peaceful resolution through grave adversity and hardship, making him one of the strongest mental leaders of this age. A certain cluster would like to say he’s no warrior because he swings no sword, nor does he shoot a bow. Unfortunately, they are wrong Lhamo Dondrub was and will always be a warrior at mind.…

Her actions also implies a sense of distance between the Queen and King because the Queen’s arrogance and proud personality leads her to push the men in her life away.
