It is a well known fact (of a myth?) that Lord Ram, after rescuing his wife, Sita, from the clutches of the evil demon Ravana, returned to India.
The tale could have had a happy ending if it wasn't for yet another twist. While taking a usual tour of his kingdom, a disguised Lord Ram, overheard a laundry man speaking to his wife, "I cannot accept you now... am not Lord ram accepts his wife who stayed with Ravana for so many days.... and nights..." This made Lord Ram reconsider his "love" for Sita. Disturbed, he mentioned his thoughts to her, and stunned, all Sita could do was say, with her hands folded, looking towards heaven, "Oh, Mother Earth, if I am pure of the heart and the body, then take me witin you." And in a moment, the Earth swallowed her.
Men might "understand" Ram's dillemma. But women cannot really overlook this particular characteristic trait of the most ideal man.
