Chapter – 192– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda– The loveliness of the supreme Lord incarnated as an infant Rama

 

Sage Yajjavalkya speaks “ Oh! Mune, the all-pervasive supreme Bhramam, free from Maya, unblemished and void of attributes/Vasana, took great pleasure on the lap of Devi Kausalya due to her pure love and devotion. His attractive limbs of dark cloud complexion excelled the beauty of crores of Manmatha resembled a blue lotus flower. The lustrous nails on the red lotus feet resembled the white pearls decorated on the red lotus flower, his lotus feet possessed the divine symbol of Padma/lotus flower, the jingling noises of the magnificent anklets stolen the hearts of the Yogis and Sages. His waist was adorned in a marvelous girdle decorated with tiny bells, the beautiful three folds on the stomach, and the deep navel, hands, and arms adorned in rings, Kankan, and armlets, his chest and neck adorned in gem decorated ornaments, tiger’s claw decorated in gold, the loveliness of his face excelled the beauty of countless Kamadeva, conch shaped neck, he has attractive chin, lips, and nose. The beautiful red lips resembled Bimba fruits, attractive lines of small teeth, and eyebrows, ears adorned in beautiful ear stud, and the sweet and melodious baby’s prattle, long and shiny hairs have never been trimmed after the birth tied up as a bundle on the top of the head, decorated with the ornaments by Devi Kausalya multiplied his loveliness. An attractive yellow silk garment clothed on the waist gives way while crawling on the little knees and beautiful hands, stolen the heart of his mothers, and Yogis. Vedas and thousand tongued Adhishesha were incompetent to describe the beauty of that little divine child, known only to the noble-souls who have contemplated.”
