It is illustrated so beautifully that there is no other beautiful garden in the world. The Ashoka Vanam of Lanka was first described in Sundara Kanda by Valmiki. Isn’t this beautiful? Sundare sundaram vanam But she refuses to use her power for herself and wants only Rama to come and take her. She was able to control the nature of a fundamental element with her power. In Sundara Kanda, Sita prays Agni to cool the fire lit at the tail of Hanuman. Her devotion towards Rama never reduced but only increased. Despite being ill-treated by Ravana, she stood strong. Mother Sita is not just beautiful by appearance but also the most beautiful through her deeds. It clearly shows the Maya of the divine Mother where She is visible as supreme Goddess to Hanuma who is just above Sita on a tree in Ashoka Vanam and as a normal woman to Ravana who stands just in front of her. Sundara Kanda is also mentioned as the story of Sundari (Bala Tripura Sundari), who is the Maya (illusive) form of Sita. In Sundara Kanda, Sri Rama is not seen until the end, but the story of Sri Ram is heard a number of times by Hanuman, Sita, Vibeeshan, and the others. His beauty can be defined by as “Pumsaam Mohana Roopaya Punya Slokaya Mangalam” that even the men who saw Sri Ram fell in love with Ram. The whole of Sundarakanda can be beautifully described through this verse.
Being the fifth Kanda our of the seven Kandas (section) of the Ramayana, Sundara Kanda can be best summarized by the above verse. Sundara meaning beauty and Kanda meaning section. Sundare sundaram mantram sundare kim na Sundara Sundare sundaram kavyam sundare sundaro kapih Sundare sundari sita sundare sundaram vanam, Sundare sundaro ramah sundare sundari katha
