bhāvajñena kṛtajñena dharmajñena ca lakṣmaṇa | tvayā putreṇa dharmātmā na saṃvṛttaḥ pitā mama || 3-15-29

"You are the knower of others feelings, knower of many skills, and the knower of what is right and honest, oh, Lakshmana, such as you are, being with you I deem that my virtue-souled father is not gone and forgotten. [3-15-29]

Ramayana is a gift that keeps giving- Rama says this to Lakshmana, indicating that Raghava sees His father in His younger brother. This also shows the importance of Lakshmana in Rama's life, and how Lakshmana played multiple roles for Rama.

Within the abdomen of this Master of the gods who is ever devoted to the accomplishment of their purposes, of this one who is identical with Brahma and who is always the refuge of the regenerate Rishis, resides Brahma (the Grandsire). Indeed, the latter dwells happily in Hari's body which is the abode. I myself, that am called Sarva, also reside happily in that happy abode of mine. All the deities too reside in happiness in His body.

Still same part from Anusasana Parva... this whole chapter is the LOML <3

He is the Eternal Purusha. Otherwise called Krishna, he is endued with the splendour of gold, and shines with effulgence like a second sun. Possessed of ten arms, he is endued with great energy, and is the slayer of the foes of the gods.

Thanks, Mahabharata. Thanks.

This is from Anusasana Parva, Chapter CXLVII, KMG version.

I am intent on making all of us keel over for my Neela Megha Shyam-

sarva eva tu tasyeṣṭa ścatvāraḥ puruṣarṣabhāḥ | svaśarīrādvinirvṛttāścatvāra iva bāhavaḥ || 2-1-5, Ayodhya Kanda, Valmiki Ramayana

Dasaratha was bestowing his equal love to all his four sons who were best among men, as though they were his four hands emerging out of his own body.

I have read and seen so many interpretations which say Maharaja Dasaratha loved Rama the most. Yet, Maharishi Valmiki, the contemporary of Sri Rama seems to differ in this aspect, and says that the King loved his four sons equally.

The eldest son is the one who is the crown Prince, the heir, the first one nurtured, especially if the eldest is the first child in the family. In that way, of course Rama was very special and different. But it is clear here that Maharaja Dasaratha did not really see a difference between his sons.

sa hi rūpopapannaśca vīryavānanasūyakaḥ | bhūmāvanupamaḥ sūnurgaṇairdhaśarathopamaḥ || 2-1-9, Ayodhya Kanda, Valmiki Ramayana

Rama was beautiful in form, a hero of valor and without envy. By virtues, he was like Dasaratha. In this way, he was an incomparable son on earth.

Rama's virtues are endless, and this is just the start of His description.

sa hi devai rudīrṇasya rāvaṇasya vadhārthibhiḥ | arthito mānuṣe loke jajñe viṣṇuḥ sanātanaḥ || 2-1-7, Valmiki Ramayana

That Rama - was He not the eternal Vishnu who was born on earth as prayed by celestials to kill the egoistic Ravana?

Valmiki Ramayana gives me answers to sooth my soul but light it too! Rama as the hero is beyond explanation, and yet is everything.
