Chapter -13 - Uththara Kandam

Sage Kakabhushundi gives lectures on the powerful Maya of Lord to Garuda

 

Lord Mahadeva speaks “Oh! Uma, the saintly and noble-souls are learned, brilliant, humble, are highly devoted, show great interest in listening to the legends of Sri Rama, if they meet the fervent devotee of Lord Hari who is dedicated, they would explain all the highly confident philosophies to them. Kakabhushundi had great reverence and affection to Pakshiraja.” Kakabhushundi speaks “Oh! Natha, you are highly fortunate and you have eternal grace of Srirama, you are highly venerable, you have no doubts, or confusion, or Moha or Maya, it was Prabhu wanted to shower grace upon me, oh! Pakshiraja, Raghupathi showered his grace upon me by sending you persuaded by his Maya. Oh! Prabho, it is nothing to get surprised about the unconquerable Maya of Lord. Oh! Pakshiraja,  Devarshi Narada, Sanakadhis, Lord Shiva, Lord Bhrama, and various illustrious Rishis and Sages have been the victim of the Maya of Lord. Kama is a powerful sensation that did not leave a single individual in this Universe. Who did not get attracted to Bhoga? Whose heart is not burned with the anger? Are there any intellectuals, sage, poet, scholar, wise, or virtuous free from Lobha? Who is free from the haughtiness and pride of wealth and possessions? Who is not take pride in their fame? Who is not fallen for the slightest lustful eye movements of the women? The Jeeva  is under the constant influence of Thrigunas/Rajas, Thamas and Sathvik, undergoes various emotions, the Thridhosha/the fluctuation in the Vatha-Piththa-Kapha affects the whole nature and feelings of the individual, therefore the Jeeva is under the influence of all those impurities, like Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Madha, Moha, and Mathshcharya, who is free from all these feelings? Who is not free from the pride of youthfulness? Who is free from the arrogance that caused downfall? Who is free from jealousy? Who is not shaken from the whirlwind of grief? Who is not bitten by the serpent of anxiousness? Who is free from the Maya of that supreme Lord? Who is free from desires which eat up the life of Jeeva, like the tree is eaten by worms? Who is free from the desires for wealth, family, and fame? These are the members of the family of the powerful Maya of that Lord, it is not describable. The Lord Bhrama and Lord Shiva are always scared of this; therefore do not speak about ordinary people like us.”

 

Sage Kakabhushundi speaks “Oh! Pakshiraja, the warriors of Maya is all-pervading, Kama, Krodha, Lobha are the chief of the army, there are endless warriors like deceitfulness, immoral deeds, and  disbelief, the powerful Maya is the Dasi of Sriram, it is impossible to conquer the Maya without the grace of Prabhu. Oh! Pakshiraja, she influences all the living and non-living things in the Universe, she dances to the movements of the eyebrow of that Prabhu. The Supreme Lord Rama is the essence of Sacchidhanandha, wisdom, loveliness, prowess and virtues, he has no birth or death, he is all-pervasive, changeless, he is eternal, he is flawless, he has endless prowess, he is supreme Lord who is beyond the perception of senses, he is beyond words, he is the knower of all, he is unblemished, he is pure, he is unconquerable, he is desireless, he has no specific form, he is void of Thriguna, he is void of Maya, he is beyond Prakrithi, he is supreme bliss resides as the soul in living beings, he is absolute Bhramam, he is independent, free from Moha,  has the brightness of Sun drives away the darkness. The Supreme Lord who is beyond Maya and changeless incarnates at his own will for the welfare of Jeeva, and acts as an ordinary human, Oh! Sarppashathro, the amusement of Prabhu causes fear in wicked Dhanavas and joy to his sincere servants, the people who soaked in material welfare and bondage does not understand the object of his amusements.”
