During the course of their journey, Rama and Lakshmana had to inflict much violence on the demons. Though Sita had tried to restrain them, eventually she herself became a victim of the evil ways of the demons. Sita had rightly said to Rama that the three evils, namely, untruth, lust and violence are the causes of all the evils in the World. Sita, the symbol of Prakriti and the embodiment of Truth and Righteousness possessed noble conduct. Her example is worthy of emulation by every woman of India. That is why Ramayana is also described as the story of Sita. (SSB 1996, p.62)
