 The main theme of such narratives is her deliverance by Rama, which is seen as proof of his compassion.Most of the fifth chapter of the "Bala Kanda" Book of the "Adhyatma Ramayana" (embedded in the "Brahmanda Purana", c. 14th century) is dedicated to the Ahalya episode.Like most other versions of the story, Ahalya is turned into stone and advised to engross herself in meditation of Rama, "the Supreme Lord".
