Week 5 Reading Diary B: The Golden Deer


I really enjoyed reading about Maricha as the Golden Deer. However, when they are in the forest Sita wants Rama to run and catch the deer. It turns out that Rama kills the deer and it ends up crying out and sounds as if it’s Rama.  Naturally Sita is worried so she wants Lakshmana to find Rama and make sure that everything is alright.  It turns out that Ravana comes to Sita disquised as an old man and tricks her.  However, my favorite part was when Ravana chopped of Jatayu’s wings.  Before he had died he wanted to tell Rama and Lakshmana that Sita had been captured. I love reading this part of the Ramayana over and over no matter who tells it!
