Sampati is one of the Twin noble vulture birds rescuing Sita in the Ramayana Dance drama. Since Jatayu died fighting for Rama or Sita against Ravana. Sampati, on the other hand, gave all his hard earned knowledge to the monkey army that was almost dying because of exhaustion, lying on the darbha grass on the bank of the Sea Setu. He saved himself and others and settled the Rama issue. The history of these bird brothers is very strange. They are known as Vulture Brothers. In the descriptions also they are birds. They were powerful vultures with wings, beaks and sharp claws. But like men they had reasoning power. They could communicate with language, and were blessed with divinity. They are characters that do a lot of things to take the incidents in the Ramayana forward.
