Image title
After many thousands of years of Rāma's righteous but lonely rule over the world, Death, in the form of an ascetic, visits Rāma and informs him of Brahmā's message: as Rāma has completed his mission and lived eleven thousand years as a mortal on earth, he can now proceed to the world of the gods in his role as Viṣṇu, the Preserver. The ascetic wishes to speak privately with Rāma, and bids Rāma kill anyone who should interrupt their conversation or overhear their discourse. Rāma agrees and requests Lakṣmaṇa to stand guard while conversing with the ascetic. The ascetic is shown twice, on the left with Lakṣmaṇa, who ushers him into Rāma's presence (top right), and conversing privately with Rāma on the lower right.
