vrm.1.39 This hindrance in Vedic ritual will become inauspicious for all of us, thereby, oh, king, action may be taken as to how there can be no fault in proceedings of the ritual.
vrm.1.39 b, a Oh, sons, I do not envisage any way in for Rakshasas into this ritual, since oh, best ones among men, holy sanctifiers who themselves are sanctified by the Vedic hymns are conducting this glorious Vedic ritual, isn t it.
vrm.1.41 On saluting them that are worthy for salutations, and on eliminating them that are the causer of obstructions, you shall achieve your purpose of tracking the ritual Horse, and thus you comeback safely and let my Vedic ritual be crossed over to the other shore of mortality by you.

vrm.1.50 b, a On receiving that veneration from the great souled Janaka, Vishvamitra asked after the well being of the king Janaka, as well about the unhindered proceedings of that Vedic ritual.

vrm.1.50 b, a "Oh, Brahma sage, the scholarly Ritvik s conducting my Vedic ritual are saying that only twelve more days are remaining to complete the observation of ritual pledge, and then oh, Kaushika, it will be apt of you to see the Gods who arrive at the conclusion of this Vedic ritual expecting their due in the ritual.
vrm.1.53 This alone is my Darsha, Puurnamaasa rituals, and like that this alone is all my Vedic rituals with worthwhile donations and oh, king, this essentially is of service in diverse activities of mine.
vrm.1.58 Vashishta is the most reverential sage and such a sage has already said it is impossible to conduct such a Vedic ritual.
vrm.1.58 Then, in which way we are capable to conduct such a Vedic ritual? Oh king of subjects, better get back to your own city again for you are childish.
vrm.1.58 a I have propitiated Gods with many kinds of Vedic rituals.
vrm.1.58 b, a While I am a pursuant in probity I expect to avail myself of the fruition of this kind of Vedic ritual.
vrm.1.59 "On listening that word of Vishvamitra his disciples went to all directions inviting all by his order, and then the Vedic scholars started to arrive from all provinces.

vrm.1.60 b, As such, let the Vedic ritual be conducted intending and enabling Trishanku, the legatee of Ikshvaku, to go to heaven by the ritualist prowess of Vishvamitra, therefor you conduct yourselves and you all preside over it.
vrm.1.60 a Concluding thus those great sages undertook concerned works of that Vedic ritual and the great resplendent Vishvamitra himself became its principal officiator.
vrm.1.61 "In the meanwhile the great king of Ayodhya, renowned as Ambarisha, embarked on to perform a Vedic ritual.
vrm.1.62 As a result, Shunashepa will have protectors, Vedic ritual will be unimpeded, Gods will be oblated, and my word too will be actualised.
vrm.1.62 When you are fastened with sacred fastener to the sacrificial post of Vishnu, smeared with red paste and garlanded with red garlands, you praisefully address the Agni with the words I going to impart to you in Vedic hymns.
vrm.1.62 These two divine hymns, oh, son of saint, shall be chanted in the Vedic ritual of Ambarisha, then you will obtain your aspiration.
vrm.1.62 Thus Vishvamitra taught two Vedic hymns to the boy.

vrm.1.66 Once, during the devastation of the Vedic ritual of Daksha Prajapati, the mettlesome god Rudra, rancorously outstretching the bowstring of this bow, said this to all Gods, superciliously.
vrm.1.66 Oh, Gods, whereby you have not apportioned my portion of oblations in Vedic ritual s, as I am also the desirer of such portion, thereby I will shred the highly revered heads of yours with this bow.
vrm.1.69 and hence, it will be apt of you to initiate the celebrations of marriage tomorrow, and the marriage itself after the culmination of the Vedic ritual in three or four days, and the date and time for the marriage, that which is agreeable to the best sages can be decided, and you can get it performed on that date, through those great sages.
vrm.1.69 Even the great resplendent Janaka on performing ritual acts according to scriptures for the Vedic ritual on hand, and the preparatory rituals for handing out both of his daughters in marriage, went into the sleep of the just, with his palm on his chest.
vrm.1.70 And I wish to see him, as he is the nominated benefactor of this Vedic ritual of mine, and he too shall become a rejoicer in partaking the joyousness of this marriage.
vrm.1.70 Oh, minister plenipotentiary, Sudaamana, you please proceed immediately to king Dasharatha, the legatee of Ikshvaku s with illimitable resplendence, and let that invincible king Dasharatha be led hither along with his sons and along with his Vedic celebrants.
vrm.1.73 Vedic ritual, keeping the sages in his forefront.
vrm.1.73 Then that godly sage Vashishta on going from Vedic ritual hall to marriage hall said this to Janaka, Oh, best one among best people, oh, king Janaka, having performed the auspicious marriage thread ceremony, Dasharatha along with his sons is looking forward for the donor.
vrm.1.73 Vedic chants, and on preparing Ritual fire by rubbing two wooden sticks, called Arani, he placed that fire in the pit of Altar, which is aflame now, and then reverently and in tune with the Vedic hymns he effused oblational liquids into that Altar of Fire, with short handled and long handled wooden scoops.

vrm.1.75 and on getting the entire earth under my control I performed Vedic ritual, and at the end of that Vedic ritual, I gave all that earth to sage Kashyapa, a sage with divine soul and with pious observances, as a ritualistic generosity.
vrm.1.77 b, a All of the brides and bridegrooms clad in silks promptly worshipped the Gods in sanctums to the benedictory chanting of Vedic hymns and Ritual fires, thus they shone forth like the tongues of Holy Fires of Vedic Altars.
vrm.2.45 Oh, Dear child! The intellect of ours, which was forever engaged in perusing the study of Vedic texts has been now made to follow the course of exile to the forest
vrm.3.1 Overspread with Darbha, the sacred grass, and jute clothing, well pervaded with Vedic splendour and well glowing like the un seeable solar arena in the sky, with naked eye.
vrm.3.1 Those hermitages are sacrosanct for Ritual fire is being worshiped with fire oblations and sacrifices to the reverberating Vedic sounds, and they are enwrapped with lotus ponds with lotuses, and even with flowers of forest.
vrm.3.1 Rama has seen such a cluster of hermitages that is glistening forth just by the presence of holy saints whose sustenance is constrained, and that hermitage is distinctive like Brahma s abode, reverberating with the sounds of that Brahma s Vedic chants alone.
vrm.3.1 a But those sages who are austerely committed to vows, on their seeing Rama, the treader on the path of rectitude, and who is now arising like moon, and at Lakshmana and at glorious Seetha as well, rendered Vedic blessings and welcomed the trio.
vrm.3.1 On sounding out Vedic blessings those virtuous sages have offered flowers, fruits and tubers, and even the entire hermitage to that great soul Rama, and then with their palms adjoined.
vrm.3.5 b, "Of which Horses we have earlier heard from our teachers telling that they belong to Indra, the Chief Invitee in Vedic rituals, they are these divinely green Horses that now abide in the firmament, and definitely these must be Indras Horses.

vrm.3.11 While saying thus Raghava has seen a cluster of hermitages nearby, encircled with sacred grass, jute cloths, and even encompassed with Vedic solemness, and he entered that hermitage along with Seetha and Lakshmana.
vrm.3.24 The all pacific aspect of that Rama then in his exasperation appeared to be like that of the all ruinous Rudra, the wielder of bow called Pinaki, namely peaceful Shiva when enraged, at the time of Rudra s embarking on to ruin the Vedic ritual of Daksha Prajapati.
vrm.3.30 "You are atrocious in conduct because you countervail against Veda s, debased by conscience because you counteract to Vedic rituals, and you are countermanding Vedic procedures because you have always been bothersome to Brahmans, and those Brahmans becoming sceptical of your deeds of hindrance, they are hesitatingly consigning oblations into Ritual Fire, which are to be swiftly dropped into fire to the chants of hymns and even on time, hence you are countervailing against Veda s and counteracting to their rituals, and countermanding their procedures.
vrm.3.32 He who is a marksman of every divine missile, and an ever interdictor of Vedic rituals, and who on going to the city named Bhogavati, the capital of Naga s, and on defeating Vaasuki, has abducted the dear wife of Taksha on molesting her, and Shuurpanakha saw such a molester of others wives.
vrm.3.32 He who is an extreme ultraist that expropriates the Soma juice oblation form the vessels of oblation in Vedic rituals, which Soma juice oblation is blest with Vedic hymns and kept separately by Vedic Brahmans, since it is intended and shall belong to Indra and other divinities, and she saw such a plunderer.
vrm.3.32 b, a He who is such an embezzler of the Vedic rituals at the time of their culmination, a malicious one, and one with cruel acts, a hinderer of Vedic rituals, or, the slayer of those Brahmans that conduct Vedic rituals contrary to his wishes, and one who is heartless and a rampant Rakshasa, who is a delighter in the iniquity to the people, at him Shuurpanakha saw.
vrm.3.38 b, a An awesome dismay has befallen owing to this Maricha, oh, lord of people Dasharatha, let Rama safeguard me becoming alert at the opportune time of the Vedic ritual.
vrm.3.38 "Then in Dandaka forest Rama twingeing his amazing bow stayed nearby the sage Vishvamitra who entered the vow of Vedic ritual.
vrm.3.46 b, He who is hit by the arrows of Kamadeva that king of Rakshasas Ravana, on seeing Seetha entered resonating the resonances of Vedic hymns as precursory in seeking alms, and spoke these well mannered sentences to her who is in solitariness.
vrm.3.50 "It will be incapable of you to forcibly abduct Vaidehi when I keep an eye one her, as with the defilement of definitive Vedic scriptures by the logicians, dialecticians, materialists and suchlike non believers, with their conjectural logic.
vrm.3.56 "It is impossible for a profaner to heavily tread on the Altar of Fire amidst a Ritual Hall surrounded by oblational vessels, further sanctified by Vedic hymns.
vrm.3.65 As no altruist can evoke indignation in a hallowed person who is performing Vedic ritual, honestly, these rivers, oceans, mountains, Deva, Gandharva, and Danavas too cannot evoke indignation in you, because they are always gentle to you.
vrm.3.68 you depart to those worlds that are destined for the virtuosos of Vedic rituals, and to those worlds that are destined for the practisers of ascesis amid Five Ritual fires, and to those that are destined for un retreating combatants, and to those worlds that destined for the donors of lands.
vrm.3.68 Rama immediately chanted Vedic hymns that are employed in such funerals of one s own paternal people, as Brahmans say that those hymns are employable in such rites as they lead the soul of the departed to heaven.
vrm.3.70 Oh, king Raghava, killing the non aggressive is tantamount to the killing of animals that are led into Vedic ritual in its midst is despicable to the kings.
vrm.3.71 "On one day, when a great sage named Sthulashira was collecting divers forest produce for his Vedic ritual, I scared him with this ugly form and I even exasperated him.

vrm.4.4 And he, King Dasharatha who performed rituals agniSToma and the like Vedic rituals wherein he donated liberally, and this one is his eldest son, and he is renowned among people by the name of Rama.
vrm.4.5 "By whom the ritual fire is well worshipped in Vedic rituals like rajasuuya, ashvametha, and thus Cows in hundreds and thousands are donated in those rituals, by whom this earth is ruled devoutly and truthful to his word, such Dasharathas son is this Rama, who has to come to forests owing to a woman.
vrm.4.6 "Before long you will get rid off your agony caused by the separation of wife, for I will fetch her very soon, like the retrieval Vedic Scriptures.
vrm.4.17 "I would have brought Maithili at your order even if she is lodged in oceanic waters or in nether worlds, as with the White Horse of Vedic lore.
vrm.4.23 b, c How can you singly take the ultimate bath of a Vedic ritual after your conducting a ritual like combat, in the waters called bloodstreams caused Rama s arrow, that too, when I, your wife, am available like a co officiator of a Vedic ritual?
vrm.4.24 "In the course of implementing scriptural rituals, and even as contained in various Vedic sayings, wife is not a separate entity than her husband, and no better endowment than endowing a wife to an eligible bridegroom by bride s father is countenanced by the wise men in the world, isn t it.

How do you wish to kill Seetha, abandoning your righteousness, in a bout of anger?" "O valiant king of Rakshasas! Why are you thinking of destroying a lady, ever since you completed the vow of celibacy essential for a study of the Vedic lore and were devoted to your own duty?"
