In the specific incarnation of Rama, the Lord acts as the ideal human being – the ideal son, ideal
brother, ideal husband, ideal king. The Ramayana,
the history of Lord Rama, is filled with the exemplary behavior of the Lord and His associates, and they all show ideal examples. Sita shows the ideal of a chaste wife, Laksmana and Bharata of faithful brothers. The
Ramayana is full of ideal examples that we are meant to follow – ideal father,
ideal son, ideal brother, ideal husband, ideal wife, ideal servant, ideal ruler, and so on.
