ఇష్త రాజ్యం, భరతుడి పట్నం
IshTha Raajyam, BharatuDi PaTnam
Translation: Everyone does what they want in Bharata's kingdom
Explanation:
When Lord Rama was exiled to life in the forest (Vanavaas), his younger brother Bharata was ashamed of having wrongly inherited the throne, he was angry with his mother Kaikeyi who orchestrated the entire event, he too wanted to follow Rama into vanvaas. But at Lord Rama's behest, he reluctantly agreed to rule the kingdom in Rama's absence. However, full of grief, he placed Rama's sandals on the throne and spent his time repenting. It is said that God alone knows how the affairs of the State were conducted with a detached king who took little interest in ruling. So if things go haywire without any central command, people say it is like Bharata's kingdom.
