Chapter – 202– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Ayodhya Kanda– Sage Bharadhwaja praises Bharatha spread love and devotion at the lotus feet of Rama and King Bhageeratha brought down the celestial river Ganga on the Earth

 

Sage Bharadhwaja spoke “Oh! Bharatha, all those grief and misconception brought blemishes on you, it is a good lesson to all, and you have proved that the pure love and devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Rama is the elixir of nectar, which would remove all grief and misperception. Oh! Dear child, your devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Rama is the stainless moon, and the devotees of Lord Rama are like water-lilies that blossom at the moonlight, and the Chakora birds that are fond of the autumn moon. Your devotion and love at the feet of Lord Rama are above the horizon, can’t get blemished and the Chakravaha like the fourteen worlds shall sing in praise of your love and devotion to Lord Rama whose glories are endless like the Sun, the life source on the Earth. The wickedness of Kaikeyi cannot eclipse the splendor of that Lord Rama. Oh! Bharatha, your love and devotion at the lotus feet of Rama won’t disappear, until and unless the misdemeanor to the preceptor. Oh! Bharatha, let the devotees of Lord Rama enjoy the nectar-like devotion from you, you have spread the practice of devotion on the Earth. Oh! Bharatha, your ancestor King Bhagiratha brought the celestial river Ganga on the Earth with his extreme austerities and penances, mere remembrance of that legend would bring an abundance of auspiciousness. King Dasaratha was a righteous ruler, and his virtues are beyond description. Oh! Dear son, there is no one equal to you in the practice of pure love and devotion at the lotus feet of Rama, no one could be superior to you.”
