Chapter – 16 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – Prayers to Lord Shambhu & Goddess Bhavani
The
wise admire the prose and poetries of lucid, describing the nature of the
spotless character, that would highly appreciate by even the opponents
forgetting their animosity. I do not have the skill or knowledge to compose
that kind of poetry, hence I repeatedly pray to those wise, intellectuals, and
the Santh, Mahathma who resemble lovely pairs of swans in the lake of Manasarovar,
kindly be gracious towards my child-like composition written out of pure love
and devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra.
I
shall prostrate before illustrious Maharishi Valmiki who composed Ramayana in
which he has given exemplary description about the demon Khara and Dhooshana
who represent impurities. I shall prostrate before the four branches of Veda
and six auxiliaries of it/ Vedanga, which highly eulogizes the glories of
Raghunandan, the delight of the clan of Raghu. I shall prostrate before Lord Bhrama who is
the creator of the Santh, Mahathma, resembles the moon, nectar, and Kamadhenu and
the wicked/demons resemble toxic poison/Varuni in the Samsara. I shall
prostrate before the deities, twice-born/Bhoodevatha, wise, intellectuals, and
the presiding deities in the nine planets. I shall pray with folded hands,
kindly bless me to accomplish my fair desires to compose the glorious legend
Sri Ramacharitha.
I
shall prostrate before Goddess Saraswathi who symbolizes excellence in speech,
and the sacred river Ganga descended from heaven to purify the souls on
the Earth. Goddess Saraswathi gets highly pleased with the recitation of her
sacred names and glories thereby remove the illusion and ignorance in the
Jeeva, and the river Ganga cleanse the Ahamkara and Mamakara, lust, desires, ego,
jealousy, pride, anger in the Jeeva with the holy dip in her water. I shall
prostrate before Lord Shambhu and Goddess Bhavani, I shall prostrate my parents
and preceptors, I shall prostrate before my friends, devotees of Lord Sri Ramachandra,
distressed Jeeva, and people who are engaged in the selfless service to Lord
Seetha Rama and his devotees are considered as highest benefactors of
Tulsidas. I shall repeatedly prostrate
before Lord Hara and Goddess Girija, for their compassion and kindness upon me
to recite the glories of Lord Hari and Hara, although I am helpless Jeeva born
in the wickedness of the Kali era, with no skill or intelligence whatsoever, have
no politeness or manners. The Lord of Uma/Umapathi has always been promising to
me, hence I shall make the composition of Sri Ramacharitha most charming and joyful
to the listeners and readers. I shall contemplate upon Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati seeking their constant supervision in my humble
initiative to compose the glorious Sri Ramacharitha. I am certain that the
perpetual blessings of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi would make the composition
spread luster as the moon surrounded by the stars. Whoever read or write or
listen to this glorious Sri Ramacharitha with pure love and devotion would get
rid of the impurities of mind such as Ahamkara, Mamakara, Kama, Krodha, Lobha,
Moha, Madha, Mathshcharya, the interest in worldly matters and the impurities
of the Kali era, the interest in Shabdha/sound,
Sparsha/touch, Rasa/taste, Roopa/appearance, and Gandha/smell, thereby get rid
of sufferings and grief of Samsara, and achieve the fruitfulness of life.
