Shiva's Bow
Here's a story behind mahatva (importance) of Shiva's bow for choosing the right king for Sita.
Shiva, the supreme tapasvi, had destroyed his hunger. So he sat atop a mountain of stone covered with snow, where no vegetation grew. Nature, taking the form of Shakti, said to him, 'Hunger distinguishes creatures alive from one which aren't. If you have no hunger, you should be called 'shava' (corpse)

महके इस क़दर कि गुलफ़ाम बन गए ,
बिख़रे इस क़दर कि नाकाम बन गए ,
रोटी को तरसे तो आवाम बन गए ,
अपने ही हक़ को हम हराम बन गए ।
बिख़रे इस क़दर कि नाकाम बन गए ,

अपने ही हक़ को हम हराम बन गए ।

Lakshman Rekha: Division between Nature and Culture
Famous Telling
To avenge the humiliation caused to his sister Surpanakha, Ravana decided to abduct Sita and punish Ram and Lakshman. He sent a golden deer (Maricha) that so enchanted Sita that she asked Ram to capture it. When Rama did not return for a long time, worried and nervous Sita asked Lakshman to look for him.
