||Sri Ram Jayram Jaya Jaya Ram||

Chapter – 53 – Dhoha – 52

The supreme Lord Mahadeva who is Kripanidhi, the enemy of Kamadeva, was extremely pleased with Devi Parvathi and highly praised her and began to speak “Oh! Bhavani, listen to the glorious legend of Ramacharitha Manas, that was narrated by Sage Kakabhushundi was heard by Garuda, I shall narrate that marvelous conversation later, now listen to the most beautiful and divine incarnation of supreme Lord Hari as Lord Rama.  The sacred names, virtues, legends, and incarnations of supreme Lord Hari are endless and beyond comparison. Oh! Uma, I shall make an effort to narrate them according to my intellect, listen to them with intense devotion.”

Lord Mahadeva continues “Oh! Girija, Veda, and scriptures are praised the glorious and sinless incarnations of Lord Hari, it is impossible to describe the reason for the incarnation of the supreme Lord. Oh! Intelligent one, listen to me carefully, Lord Rama is beyond mind, intellect, and word, Oh! Varanane, I shall describe the purpose of the incarnation according to my knowledge, which was described by ascetics, illustrious Sages and Rishis, Veda, and Puranas.  Whenever the threat for Dharma/righteousness increases and the wicked and haughty demons increase on the Earth, whenever endless immoralities takes place, whenever the twice-born, cows, deities, and mother Earth undergoes atrocities of the human, the compassionate Lord Hari incarnates on the Earth and removes the sufferings and miseries of the noble souls. He destroys the wicked demons, reinstate Dharma and deities, and restore the moralities prescribed in the Veda, and spread the eternal truth, is the object of the incarnation of Lord Rama. The saintly, ascetic and noble souls sing in praise of that supreme Lord and cross the unfathomable ocean of worldly existences effortlessly. The Supreme Lord incarnates on the Earth for his ardent devotees, there are several reasons for the birth of Lord Rama, and every incarnation holds utmost importance, I shall narrate one or two of them, listen to them carefully. Oh! Bhavani, Lord Hari had two favorite doorkeepers Jaya and Vijaya, these two brothers took birth in the Asurayoni due to the curse of Sanakadhis.  These two brothers were born as Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakashipu. These two were crushed the pride of Lord Indra, and fought against the deities are well known to the three worlds. Lord Hari incarnated as wild boar/Varaha and killed Hiranyaksha, and took incarnation as half-lion and half-man/Narasimha and killed Hiranyakashipu and reinstated the devotion of his favorite devotee Prahlada. Further, these two brothers were born as powerful Rakshasa Ravana and Kumbhakarnna, they were extremely valorous, conquered the deities.  The Hiranyaksha and Hiranyakashipu who was died previously in the hands of Lord Hari was not attained Mukthi, because they were cursed to born three times on the Earth.”
