- En una de las adaptaciones de la leyenda épica hindú de Ramayana, Maya Sita (en sánscrito, माया सीता, "illusional Sita") o Chaya Sita (छाया सीता, "shadow Sita") es la doble de la diosa Sita (heroína de los textos), quien es secuestrada por el rey demonio Ravana de Lanka en vez de la real Sita. En el Ramayana, Sita, la consorte de Rama (príncipe de Ayodhya y avatar del dios Vishnu) es raptada por Ravana y hecha prisionera en Lanka, hasta que es rescatada por Rama, que mata a su captor. Sita es sometida a una prueba de fuego por Agni Pariksha para probar su santidad antes de ser aceptada por Rama. En alguna versiones de la leyenda, el dios del fuego, Agni, crea a Maya Sita, quien toma el lugar de Sita y es secuestrada por Ravana, mientras que la Sita real se esconde en el fuego. En Agni Pariksh, Maya Sita y Sita vuelven a intercambiar lugares, mientras que algunos dicen que Maya Sita es destruida por la flamas de Agni. Otros narran que es bendecida y vuelta a nacer como la heroína Draupadi o la diosa Padmavati y algunas escrituras mencionan que antes había sido Vedavati, una mujer de la que Ravana había tratado de abusar.

- In some adaptations of the Hindu epic Ramayana, Maya Sita (Sanskrit: माया सीता, "illusional Sita") or Chaya Sita (छाया सीता, "shadow Sita") is the illusionary duplicate of the goddess Sita (the heroine in the texts), who is abducted by the demon-king Ravana of Lanka instead of the real Sita. In the Ramayana, Sita – the consort of Rama (the prince of Ayodhya and an avatar of the god Vishnu) – is seized by Ravana and imprisoned in Lanka, until she is rescued by Rama, who slays her captor. Sita undergoes Agni Pariksha (an ordeal of fire) by which she proves her chastity before she is accepted by Rama. In some versions of the epic, the fire-god Agni creates Maya Sita, who takes Sita's place and is abducted by Ravana and suffers his captivity, while the real Sita hides in the fire. At Agni Pariksha, Maya Sita and the real Sita exchange places again. While some texts mention that Maya Sita is destroyed in the flames of Agni Pariksha, others narrate how she is blessed and reborn as the epic heroine Draupadi or the goddess Padmavati. Some scriptures also mention her previous birth being Vedavati, a woman Ravana tries to molest. The Maya Sita motif saves Sita – the chief goddess of Rama-centric sects – from falling prey to Ravana's plot of abduction and safeguards her purity. Similar doubles or surrogates of Sita and other goddesses are found in various tales of Hindu mythology. (en)
