Abstract

The play "Uttar Ramacharita" written by Mahakavi Bhavabhuti depicts the sequel of Ramayana, which includes the events after the coronation of Rama, Sita's exile, the birth of Luv-Kush and the reunion of Rama-Sita. The characters of this play are not only of mythological importance, but their qualities and thoughts inspire even in today's society. Shri Rama is a symbol of ideal leadership and justice, he sacrifices his personal pleasures for the welfare of the people and takes difficult decisions to protect justice. In today's time, Rama's character teaches us that a true leader should rise above his personal interest and work for the welfare of the society and the nation. Mother Sita is a symbol of womanly respect and tolerance. Sita has to suffer exile due to the suspicion of society, but she maintains patience and self-respect. She raises Luv-Kush by becoming self-reliant. In today's time, Sita's character gives us the identity of a strong woman with self-respect and self-reliance.

Abstract

The Kakawin Rāmāyaṇa itself is an Old Javanese literary work adapted from the Sanskrit epic Rāmāyaṇa by Valmiki. This work not only serves as entertainment but also as a source of moral and ethical teachings for the Old Javanese society. In the Kakawin Rāmāyaṇa, the character of Sang Daśaratha is described in depth, especially in Sargah (chapter) I Pada (stanza) 3. This research focuses on the effort to elaborate in detail the leadership patterns of Sang Daśaratha using a qualitative research method with a textual analysis approach. In the process, several results were obtained: a Hindu leader who applies the ideal leadership principles in Kakawin Rāmāyaṇa Sargah I Pada 3 must be oriented towards a typical leader who understands the concept of the Vedic teachings. This can be explored through fundamental principles that include dharma, sattva, karma, self-knowledge and awareness, vasudhaiva kutumbakam, integrity and ethical leadership, as well as interconnectedness and holistic vision. It is also important for a Hindu leader to always devote themselves to the Gods. In the principles shown in Kakawin Rāmāyaṇa Sargah I Pada 3, at least three deities are shown to be central entities that must be worshiped, namely Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu, and Lord Shiva, as well as Lord Agni. In addition, a leader must also have a soul of love for their family and people and never forget their ancestors, because all of that is a source of strength and inspiration.

Abstract

This research article examines the concept of family in Valmiki’s Ramayana, focusing on its cultural, moral, and social importance. The study uses qualitative textual analysis along with sociological theories such as role theory, symbolic interactionism, and functionalism to look at family duty, gender roles, sibling connections, emotional work, and the passing down of values. By analysing key characters and events, including Rama’s exile, Sita’s moral choices, Lakshmana’s loyalty, and Bharata’s renunciation, the article shows that the Ramayana presents family not as a fixed ideal but as a complex moral institution based on dharma (duty) and resilience. It also explores how women contribute to and challenge family structures and highlights the concept of extended and chosen families beyond biological ties. The findings suggest that the epic offers timeless lessons on sacrifice, forgiveness, and ethical decision-making that are still relevant to today’s family issues. The study concludes that the Ramayana, while grounded in tradition, provides a dynamic and thoughtful view of family life, one that continues to spark discussions across generations and cultures.
