Chapter
– 11– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Ayodhya Kanda– The deities worship Devi Sarada
at the news of the coronation ceremony of Rama
Sage Yajjavalkya speaks “ Oh! Mune, at that
very moment, Lakshman entered into Rama’s chamber and greeted him with lots of
love, and Rama, the delight of the Raghu clan received his younger brother with
sweet words, like the freshly bloomed lily in the moonlight. The sounds of
divine music instruments reverberated in the whole city, the celebration began
for the upcoming coronation ceremony of Rama, the joy of the people of Ayodhya was
beyond description. Everyone prayed for Bharatha’s timely return from his
maternal uncle’s Kingdom on the auspicious occasion and spoke to one another
“Will Bharatha achieve the fruitfulness of his eyes watching the coronation of
Rama?” In every nook and corner of the city, street, and Bazar, people have
gathered and discussed the upcoming celebration “When will be the auspicious
hour begins? Which deity shower the grace on us to envisage Lord Rama along
with Devi Sita seated on the golden throne of Ayodhya? When will we get
fulfilled the long-cherished wish to see Rama as the King of Ayodhya?” and they
impatiently waited for the daylight. The wicked and deceitful prayed for a mishap so that the joy of the people of the Kingdom would vanish because they did not
enjoy the happiness of the people of Ayodhya, like the owl, gets troubled with the
sunlight, and the moonlight is hated by the thieves. At that moment, the
deities appealed to Goddess Sarada, prostrated at her lotus feet and worshiped
her, sincerely prayed to her again and again.
Thehi Avasara Aye Lakhana Magana Premanandhana | Sanmane Priya
Bachana Kahi Raghukula Kaurava Chandha ||
Bajahi Bajane Bibidha Bidhana | Pura Pramodhu Nahi Jayi Bakhana || Bharatha Agamanu Sakala Manavahi |Avahu Begi Nayana
Phalu Pavahi || Hat Bat Ghar Gali Athayi | Kahahi Paraspara Loga Logayi || Kali Lagana Bhali Kethika Bara | Poojihi Bidhi Abhilashu Hamara ||
Kanaka Sindhasana Siya Sametha | Baitahi Ramu Hoyi Chith Chetha || Sakala
Kahahi Kab Hoyihi Kali | Bidhana Manavahi Deva Kuchali || Thinhahi Sohayi Na
Avadha Badhava | Chorahi Chandhini Rathi Na Bhava || Saradha Boli Binaya
Sura Karahi | Barahi Bar Paya Lai Parahi
