Did valmiki write about chayya sita versus real sita kept by agni dev. or wast that said afterwards to justfy's ram's behavior. Ok if that is true then when did Ram know that Sita might be kidnapped, I mean when does he get the power to see the future.
In Valmiki Ramayan, there is no Chaya Sita concept. It is the real Sita that is kidnapped. The Chaya Sita concept is only written in Ramcharitmanas by Tulsidas. In Valmiki Ramayan, after Sita is brought before Rama, Rama says that Sita is free to go where she feels like and he only fought the war to reclaim the honor of the Raghukul. Hurt by his words, Sita orders Lakshman to make a fire. After Lakshman does so, Sita vows that she never knew any other man than Shri Ram, and if her words are true, may the Fire God not harm her. Sita comes out of the fire unscathed and Agni Dev himself tells everyone that Sita is pure and no sin ever touched her. Shri Ram then says that he never had a doubt about Sita's purity, and the Agni Pravesha was only to convince the world of her chastity.
In Ramcharitmanas, Tulsidas writes that Ramji always knew he was Lord Vishnu, so he knew his duty and what he had to accomplish in his life. That's why he sent Sita to Agni Dev before Shurpanakha came. He knew what was going to happen.
In Valmiki Ramayan, Ram does not know about his divinity. He only knows himself as a human, son of Raja Dasharath.
So it all depends on which version you believe in. Hope I helped
А в новой версии - по Вальмики, выходит дело, сделали..
