On their sixth month, Dashratha arranged for the Annaprashana of his sons.
The princes were fed their first solid food. Vashishtha fed them.
Dashratha taking his sons fed them with his own hands.
It was time to think of a name for the princes. Kaushalya's son was named after the mantra that had given salvation to Valmiki, and he was named Rama.
Destined to bear the weight of the earth, Kaikeyi's son was called Bharata.
Sumitra had twins. The younger was named Shatrughna and the elder one was named Lakshmana.
The king hearing the names of his sons, gifted cows to the priests.
