But, truly speaking I don't wanna believe that Seeta was ever cursed. She could neither be so cruel or so careless.
And, if the first story was true, then it would mean that Valmiki had predicted everything line-by-line beforehand. But, didn't he write everything after interviewing Seeta when she stayed in his ashram post exile? I am confused. 😕

Radhike, pauranic stories are always different from epics

Both the epics are 'itihasa' history but not the stories mentioned in puranas. These stories many a times are superimposed on great personalities to increase their value and we don't have to believe.

Human mind always tries to find why a certain thing happened

Since Sita & Ram suffered so much , these stories attempt to find what caused that suffering and so such stories are woven..

It is said that Saraswati maa cursed all three Brahman, Vishnu and Shiv when Brahma married Gayatri maa because she was late to the ceremony.
Her curse was that Vishhnu will always be separated from his love very time he takes a human form and that has always happened, with Sita and Radha.

TFS

That is the legend of Pushkar where Saraswati curses Brahma, Vishnu and Indra that Brahma won't be worshipped on earth, Indra will lose in battle and swarga, Vishnu will have to bear separation from his consort so Gayatri provides a solution and limits the effect of curses; Brahma will be worshipped only in Pushkar ; Vishnu will bear separation only in human form; Indra will regain swarga even if he faces defeat.

In our puranas, even Gods were cursed at times, but like Ram says, whatever happened, happened for the good of the world.

di ,yes the story of brig maharshi cursing lord vishnu is there, but according to the folk lore in Andhra where I belong to its said that brig maharshi said in every human form lord vishnu takes he will lose his woman... applied to ram,kanha .
