Chapter – 27 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – Sri Ramanama is the Kalpatharu in the Kali era – It is the savior in the Kali era

 

Sri Ramanama is Kalpatharu which fulfills all the desires and provide all the auspiciousness to the worshiper, it removes the evilness of the Kali era, hence whoever recite the sacred ‘Ramanama’ would get rid of impurities of lust, desire, anger, jealousy, pride, Ahamkara, Mamakara, like the poisonous shrub and gets transformed into holy basil. The sacred name ‘Ram’ provided all the auspiciousness in the four Yugas/Krita, Thretha, Dwapara, and Kali Yuga, and the past, present, and future, and the Earth, Heaven, and neither worlds as well. The Veda, Puranas, Rishis and Sages repeatedly affirm that whoever taken shelter at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra, and in the Ramanama with pure love and devotion would achieve commendable rewards at all times. In the Krita Yuga, the people were engaged in Tapasya/extreme penance to achieve the grace of Lord, in the  Thretha Yuga people were immersed in the performance of spiritual and religious rites, and fire sacrifices to please the Lord,  in the Dwapara Yuga the worship of deities began to earn the desired results, thus the  idol worship came into practice, and in the Kali Yuga nothing of the above would yield the grace of Lord, due to the impurities of mind and evilness of Kali era the Jeeva splashing in the ocean of sins, hence the mere recitation of ‘Ramanama’ would provide all the desired results to the worshiper, it would destroy the illusion and ignorance in the Jeeva, remove the impurities of Ahamkara and Mamakara, thereby the sufferings and the grief of Samsara. The Ramanama is the savior in the Kali era, it is like the father and mother to the Jeeva who have taken shelter in it achieves auspiciousness in the Iha/life on the Earth and Paraloka/life after death as well.  In the Kali era the Karma/deeds lacks purity and the Bhakti/devotion has become the mere show-off and the Gnana/wisdom and intellect got tarnished, therefore the ‘Ramanama’ is the safest asylum to the Jeeva who yearn for liberation from the sufferings and grief of Samsara and Samsara Chakra. The Kali era is full of wickedness as the demon Kalanemi who met miserable death in the hands of Pavanasutha, therefore, the Ramanama resemble the valorous Hanuman who is the safest haven to the Jeeva taken shelter in it.
