Lava is one of the twin sons of Rama, the epic's protagonist, in the Ramayana, the earlier of the two major Indian epics.
Lava is born in the typical manner after their mother,
Sita, is exiled to the ashram of the guru Valmiki.
Valmiki mysteriously creates his sibling, Kusha, out of
kusha grass.
Lava and Kusha later accompany Valmiki to Rama's court at
Ayodhya.
They first read the epic poem written by Valmiki, the
Ramayana, at Rama's court.
Rama splits his kingdom between Lava and Kusha when he
relinquishes his reign.
