Sage Valmiki, who authored Ram’s history, categorically stated that he had seen and talked to Ram. The following three Shlokas from Uttar Kand of the Ramayana stand testimony to that fact:
taam drishtvaa shrutimaayaanti brahmaananugaamineemim Vaalmeekeh prishthatah Seetam saadhuvaado mahaanbhoot
Meaning: Sita, walking behind Valmiki, looked like a goddess. All present hailed her glory(U.96.12)
iyam Daashrathe Seeta suvrata dharmachaarini apavaadaat parityakta mamaashramsameepatah
Meaning: O Dasharath’s son Ram, Sita is righteous and austere in her spiritual quest.You had abandoned her near my hermitage for fear of public outrage and calumny
(U.96.17)
prachetaso-aham dashamah putro Raghavnandan na smaraamyanritam vaakyamimau tu tav putrakau
Meaning: I am the tenth son of Pracheta, O Ram! I have never spoken a lie. I truthfully tell you that these two are your sons
(U.96.19)
