Raam said - Hey Kalyaanee, I have got you freed after killing the enemy. I have taken the revenge. I have done my duty. I have won the war for you only. But I did not do this only for you, I did not do this to free myself from insult and to remove the black spot on my Vansh too. Your character can be questioned, but still you are standing in front of me. As an eye patient does not like the light, I do not like you. Therefore wherever you want to go, you can go. I permit you for it. Wherever you feel comfortable, you may live there. Who will be a noble man who will accept a woman lived in somebody else's house? You may go wherever you want to go."

Sarg 116 - Seetaa Enters Agni

Hearing such harsh words from Her husband, Seetaa broke into tears. She said to Raam - "Hey Swaamee, Why do you speak to me such harsh words. Trust me, I vow of my good behavior that I am not that kind of woman. Touch of my body to Raavan's body was not in my control. I did not do it of my own. My heart and mind are under my control. They always think about you." Then Seetaa said to Lakshman - "I do not want to live with a black spot on my head, therefore you prepare a pyre for me. My Swaamee is not happy with me. He has left me in public then this is the only way for me. I will enter Agni."

Lakshman, at Raam's order, prepared the pyre. In the same condition, Seetaa revolved around the pyre, did Pranaam to Devtaa and Braahman and said - "If my heart has not thought about Ragunaath at any time then Agni Dev is witness to me. If I am pure then may Agni Dev protect me from all around." And She sat on the pyre. Whoever women and Raakshas were present there and Vaanar too started crying seeing this.

Sarg 117 - Brahmaa Tells Raam His Identity

At that time Kuber, Yam with Pitar, Dev Raaj Indra, Varun, Mahaadev, Creator of all Lok Brahmaa Jee came to Raam. Ram was standing joining His palms together in front of them. All Devtaa said - "Hey Raam, You should not consider Seetaa like other ordinary women, because you yourself are the Swaamee of all Lok." Raam said - "I consider my self a human being and the son of Raajaa Dashrath, therefore, what I am, and where I have come from, please tell me the truth."

Then Brahmaa Jee said - "You are 4-armed Vishnu and you are Madhusoodan. You are Mahendra, Padmnaabh, Ved. Cow and Braahman are your Swaroop (form). You are the Swaamee of Trilok because you have measured three Lok, controlled Raajaa Bali and return Indra's kingdom to Indra. You have taken this form to kill Raavan, so you have killed him. Now you may go to Swarg."

Sarg 118 - Agni Dev Proves Seetaa's Purity

Hearing Brahmaa's words, Agni Dev came himself carrying Seetaa and said to Raam - "Take your Seetaa. She has not sinned at all - by heart, by action, or by speech. Raavan abducted Her in a wild forest and when She was in Lankaa, She always remembered you. Raavan tried his best but She was firm in Her character. therefore She is sinless and is pure hearted, so you accept Her."

Raam said to Agni Dev - "I tested Her because She had been in Raavan's house. If I did not test Her then people had called me lusty and fool. I know this that She remembered me only and Raavan was unable to attack Seetaa even by heart. Nobody can dare to insult Her because Seetaa is mine. Trilok has accepted the purity of Seetaa then how can I leave Her. You are all the caretaker of Trilok, therefore I will have to obey you." All Devtaa got happy o hear all this.
