1 The Seventh Canto of Śrī Rāmāyaṇa will inform us that Vedavatī had promised that she would appear as Sītā to destroy Rāvaṇa in her next life. So, Sītā-devī was nothing but Rāvaṇa’s death in disguise. This was known to the sages who could perceive the factual nature of Lord Rāmacandra and His associates. Therefore, Lord Rāma tells Śrī Lakṣmaṇa to inform the sage that He had come with Sītā.
“With Sītā” indicates that Rāma was prepared to kill Rāvaṇa.1
