Description
Dasharatha continues to tell Kausalya how, having sought the presence of the aged parents of the deceased, he apprised them of the sad incident and escorted them to the river bank, where their son lay dead; how, clasping the boy to their bosom, they both piteously wailed and offered libations of water to his spirit for its benefit; how, invested with an ethereal body, the spirit ascended to heaven while consoling the aged couple and finally, how, having cursed the king that he too would meet his death in his agony of separation from his son, the ascetic couple gave up their lives and attained the Supreme. Having thus related the story of his imprecation and loudly lamenting, the Emperor breathes his last with the thought of Sri Rama foremost in his mind.
