Rama Thanks Jatayu
When Rama returned, he could not find Sita. His heart was worried.
Then he found his old friend Jatayu, tired from trying so hard to help.
Jatayu told Rama, "Ravana took Sita to the south. I tried my best to save her, dear friend."
Rama knelt beside the brave eagle and held him gently. "Thank you, Jatayu," he whispered. "You are a true friend. I will never forget your brave heart."
Rama honoured Jatayu with love and thanks for his loyal help.
Always be thankful to those who try their best to help you.
