May 12, 2023 at 14:53 | comment | added | ram | child marriages are extremely common until ~100 years ago. both boy and girl were children. and Rama was not 15. he was 12. miunderstanding because dashrath says 'not even 16' (cos 16 is major age to fight in battle). @GokulRenjith | |

Apr 20, 2022 at 8:20 | comment | added | Vivikta | Umm... No, IMO it's their original chronological age itself being talked about, which matches with the Valmiki Ramyanaa Verse 1-20-2. So, as I see it, Sita was 6 years old, and Rama 15, at the time of their marriage, which was a common practice for those days, and in accordance with scriptures @LSSJBroly :) | |

Apr 20, 2022 at 2:48 | comment | added | Vivikta | age of second birth? Could explain what you mean by that?...... Super-Saiyan @LSSJBroly :D | |
Apr 19, 2022 at 15:26 | comment | added | LSSJ Broly | I am personally confused regarding the age of Mata Sita as 6 years and Lord Rama as 15 years. IMO I think that it describes the age of their second birth as why would they marry at such a young age.Maybe I'm wrong. | |
