The Rāmāyana gives many particulars of Viswāmitra’s connection with Rāma. It was Viswāmitra who prevailed upon King Dasa-ratha to send his son Rāma for the protection of the Brāhmans against the attacks of Rāvana and his Rākshasas. He acted as his guru, and returned with Rāma to Ayodhyā, where the prince obtained the hand of Sītā.
