AS YOU SOW‚ SO SHALL YOU REAP is the teaching we find in the Ramayana. There is no doubt that we should work without any care for the result. Work is not only counted in this world but counts something for the next world also. Good people are always praised in this world. On the other hand bad workers are cursed everywhere.

The following quote shows just how concerned he was. "Krishna‚ how can I fight against Bhishma and Drohma with arrows when they deserve my worship?" (Stanza 4 pg. 469) Rama too experiences a great deal of self-doubt about whether or not he will be capable of defeating Ravana and saving his wife Sita.

The Gokul Ashtami festival in Part III is given wider significance by being repeatedly referred to in biblical terms so that‚ whilst it retains its Hindu origin‚ it is also placed in a Christian context.
