/n Sri 0amayana, Sita devi1s life was awfully miserable in 8an)a. She felt li)e committing suicide and in that conte#t, her words are
mentioned by Valmi)i maharshi here. She did not commit suicide. She reviewed such negative thoughts and developed positive
strength to face miseries. Sri Guru discouraged such suicidal thoughts and energied them with positive strength to live full life..
