Chapter – 145– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – Devi Shatharoopa and Manu’s requests for Ananyabhakthi at the lotus feet of Lord Hari

 

Devi Shatharoopa with folded hands prayed to Lord Hari “Oh! Prabho, kindly shower your compassionate grace of us, and firm devotion/Ananyabhakthi at your lotus feet which is the ultimate objective of the Jeeva, let the wisdom and knowledge do not leave us in any circumstances, and let us remain devoted to your lotus feet at all times.” Lord Hari was highly pleased listening to the words full of wisdom and pure love, gently replied “Oh! Mother, I have granted all those boons you have cherished, and all that desired by you. The Viveka/wisdom and knowledge will not leave you under any circumstances.” Raja Manu bowed at the feet of Hari, took hold of his feet, and spoke in tears “Oh! Prabho, I have an earnest appeal to you, I should have intense love and attachment to my son, let it be my foolishness or ignorance, I want a unique relationship to be shared with my son, that should be full of love and devotion, as the serpent cannot live without the precious gem on its forehead, and the fishes cannot leave without water. Oh! Prabho, kindly provide me the boon that I can’t live without my son who is Paramathma Parambhramam personified.” Raja Manu prostrated before the lotus feet of Lord Hari, and took hold of his feet firmly, shed tears of joy and love. The merciful Lord Hari took Devi Shatharoopa and Manu in his hand and advised “All your wishes would get fulfilled, kindly leave the dense forest and live in the abode of Lord Indra for some time and enjoy all the heavenly pleasures.”
