This painting by Harish
Johari shows an early scene of the Ramayan epic, when
Ram and Sita started living in exile in the forest, together
with Lakshman. When King Dasharata heard of this, he left
his body. Ram's steph-brother, who was supposed to become
king now that his father died, came to Ram in the forest
to offer him the throne of Ayodhya. He loved and respected
Ram and did not want to become king in his place. However
Ram did not accept his offer, knowing it to be his destiny
to spend time in this forest untill he would be ready to
defeat the demons and create the reign of real Dharma. Bharat
finally returned to Ayodhya, taking with him the wooden
sandals of Ram. These he place on the throne and while he
ruled Ayodhya in the absence of Ram for 14 years, he did
so as a humble servant and never himself sat on the throne.
The painting shows Ram and Bharat embracing in the forest,
with Shatrughan touching Bharat's feet and Lakshman and
Sita watching. With them also stands the tribal king Nishad-Raj
in his tribal dress.
