Bharata returned from his uncle's placeand performing the rites for the diseasedfather went to the forest and met Rama.
He pleaded with him to return and takeup the duties of a king. Rama refused.At that time Bharata started preparationsfor fasting unto death.
Now read on whatis written in the Ramayana.
Valmiki Ramayana Ayodyakanda Sarga111 - Slokas 12 to 18
एवमुक्तस्तु रामेण भरत: प्रत्यनन्तरम् /
उवाच परमोदार: सूतं परमदुर्मना: //
इह मे स्थण्डिले शीघ्रं कुशानास्तर सारथे /
आर्यं प्रत्युपवेक्षामि यावन्मे न प्रसीदति //
अनाहारो निरालोको धनहीनो यथा द्विज: /
शेष्ये पुरस्तात् शालायां यावन्मां प्रतियास्यति //
स तु राममवेक्षंतं सुमन्तं प्रेक्ष्य दुर्मना:/
कुशोत्तरमुपस्थाप्य भूमावेवावस्थित: स्वयम् //
तमुवाच महातेजा रामो राजर्षिसत्तम: /
किं मां भरत कुर्वाणं तात प्रतुपवेक्ष्यति //
ब्राह्मणो ह्येकपार्श्वेन नरान् रोद्धुमिहार्हति /
न तु मूर्धाभिषिक्तानां विधिः प्रत्य्पवेशने //
उत्त्तिष्ठ नरशार्दूल हित्वैतं दारुणं व्रतम् /
पुरिवर्यामित: क्षिप्रमयोद्ध्यां याहि राघव //
