Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – King Prathapbhanu gets highly impressed with the way of living of mendicant

 



Chapter – 155– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – King Prathapbhanu gets highly impressed with the way of living of mendicant

 

The wicked ascetic spoke dexterously “I am a mendicant, I don’t have a home, wealth, possession, fame, money, richness, and people as my family, and relatives.” King Bhanuprathap was highly pleased with the well-spoken words of the ascetic, began to speak innocently “Oh! Mune, you are speaking wise words, which is difficult to understand for the people who are drenched in the Samsara, you are a mendicant by words, deeds, and thought, living in isolation for the welfare of the Universe and its living beings. The Saints, noble-souls, and Mahatmas do not take pride in material matters or possession, they are pure by heart, free from Ahamkara and Mamakara. These ascetics possess immense knowledge and wisdom, always appear in tattered clothes, do not take pleasure in worldly matters, live and practice as prescribed in the Veda and scriptures. These ascetics are most beloved of supreme Lord Hari, their mind is devoted at the lotus feet of Bhrama, Vishnu, and Maheshwara. Oh! Mune, whoever you are, I offer my humble salutation to you, kindly be gracious to me.” The wicked ascetic understood that King Prathapbhanu completely fallen under his spell, watching his faith and nobility, took great pleasure in the heart that he has won over enemy forever, began to speak affectionately “Oh! Rajan, I am living in this dense wood all alone for several thousands of years.”

 

Kapata Bori Bani Mridhula  Boleau Juguthi Sametha | Nama Hamara Bhikhari Aba Nirdhana Rahitha Niketha ||

Kaha Nripa Je Bigyana Nidhana | Thumha Sarikhe Galitha Abhimana || Sadha Rahahi Apanapau Dhuraya | Sab Bidhi Kusala Kubesha Banaya || Thehi The  Kahahi Santha Shruthi Dere | Parama Akinchana Priya Hari Kere || Thumha Sama Adhana Bhikhari Ageha | Hotha Biranchi Sivahi Sandheha || Josi Sosi Thava Charana Namami | Mo Par Kripa Karia Ab Swami || Sahaja Preethi Bhoopathi Kai Dhekhi | Aapu Bishaya Biswasa Biseshi || Sab Prakar Rajahi Apanayi | Boleau Adhika Saneha Janayi || Sunu Sathbhau Kahau Mahipala | Iha Basath Beethe Bahu Kala ||
