Chapter – 265– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda– Lakshman’s harsh speeches on Sage Parashurama


Sage Parashurama continued in extreme rage “Oh! Son, do not bring grief to your parents at this elderly state, you did not know about the history of my powerful axe which has been severed off the heads of several wicked Kshatriyas, and taken away the life of several unborn offspring’s.” Lakshman smiled defiantly and spoke “The illustrious Sage Parashurama considers himself as the most powerful warrior, he flaunts the axe, again and again, to put me off, as if the mere puff of his breath would blow away the Mountain. I am not that pumpkin to wither away from its creeper at the touch of his finger. I have been conversing with you politely, after seeing you wielded in bow and arrow, axe on hand, or I would not have initiated a speech at all. I have understood that you are the descend of illustrious Brighu clan, and adorned in sacred thread across the chest, hence it is ideal to keep away myself from your rage, and listen to you obediently. The Raghu clans never displayed their valour before the deities, twice-born/Bhramins, Mahatmas, saints, Rishis and Sages, devotees of Lord Sri Hari, cows etc. we are thoroughly aware that the misdeeds against them would bring disgrace and grave sins to us. We are prepared to bow down at your feet, even if you strike us with your axe or arrows. Oh! Mune, every single word of you resemble lightning, and it pierces our heart, hence the weapons of bow and arrow, the axe is a burden to you.”
