Which Pariksha did Devi Sita had to undergo after the victory of Lord Sh. Ram over Ravan and why?

Answer 1

There are two versions to this story. one was that Rama was incarnation of Vishnu and sita was his cosort Maha lakshmi. So beore Going for chasing the Golden deer Rama told Sita to leve her virtual image for ravan to carry and hide in the fire. So after Victory over Ravan Rama told sita to prove her chastity by entering the fire and come out unharmed, the virtual sita entered the fire and real sita came out.
The other version is that the real sita was carried away by ravana but he could not go near her because she was fire. So when rama told her to prove her chastity she entered the fire and came out unharmed.
Thereis nothing astonishing or fabrication in this beacaus even now in Kerala there is a vow taken by people to walk in fire. all men women and even children take this vow. a pit of 10 feet length and 4 ft depth 3ft width is dug and fire lit in that with coal and when it burns red hot those who have taken the vow walk accross and come out unharmed

Answer 2

Agni pariksha

After Rama slays Ravana and wins the war, Sita wants to come before him in the state which over a year's imprisonment had reduced her to, Rama arranges for Sita to be bathed and given beautiful garments before they are re-united. But even as Sita comes before him in great excitement and happiness, Rama does not look at her, staring fixedly at the ground. He tells her that he had fought the war only to avenge the dishonour that Ravana had inflicted on Rama, and now Sita was free to go where she pleased. At this sudden turn of events, all the vanaras, rakshasas, Sugriva, Hanuman and Lakshmana are deeply shocked.[15]

A devastated Sita, shaking with grief and humiliation, begs Lakshmana to build her a pyre upon which she could end her life, as she could not live without Rama. At this point, Lakshmana is angered at Rama for the first time in his life, but following Rama's nod, he builds a pyre for Sita. At the great shock and sorrow of the watchers, Sita walks into the flames. But to their greater shock and wonder, she is completely unharmed. Instead, she glows radiantly from the centre of the pyre. Immediately Rama runs to Sita and embraces her. He had never doubted her purity for a second, but, as he explains to a dazzled Sita, the people of the world would not have accepted or honoured her as a queen or a woman if she had not passed this Agni pariksha before the eyes of millions, where Agni would destroy the impure and sinful, but not touch the pure and innocent.[16]

Answer 3

Sita had to undergo AgniPariksha after comming from Srilanka after Rama's victory over Ravan. Sita was led forth, beaming with happiness at finding herself re-united to her husband; but her happiness was destined to be of short duration. Rama received her with coldness and with downcast eyes, saying that she could no longer be his wife, after having dwelt in the house of Ravana. Sita assured him of her innocence; but on his continuing to revile her, she ordered her funeral pyre to be built, since she would rather die by fire than live despised by Rama. The sympathy of all the bystanders was with Sita, but Rama saw her enter the flames without a tremor. Soon Agni, the god of fire, appeared, bearing the uninjured Sita in his arms. Her innocence thus publicly proved by the trial by fire, she was welcomed by Rama, whose treatment she tenderly forgave.
