Chapter – 13– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Aranya
Kanda– Lakshman appeals to Rama to describe Bhakti, Gnana, and Vairagya
Rama along with Devi Sita and Lakshman
arrived on the riverbank of Godavari, Lakshman constructed a beautiful
hermitage for Lord. Rama met Jatayu, the King of birds and Rama have developed a
close bond in a short period of time. Soon after the arrival of Rama in the
Panchavati, the Sages and Rishis lived in the forest became happy, started
moving freely, and performing austerities and Tapasya without the fear of
demons. The entire forest flourished with an abundance of green, the trees and
plants loaded with flowers and fruits, nestled by different species of birds
and packed with the buzzing of honey bees, the streams, rivers, ponds were brimming
with crystal clear water invited various species of animals to settle near the
riverbank. The richness and beauty of the Panchavati grown beyond description
in the presence of Rama, even thousand tongued Adhishesha would find it
difficult to describe them. Once, Lord Rama was sitting at ease, Lakshman
approached the Lord with innocent words “Oh! Prabho, you are the Lord of Lords,
you are the Lord of animate and inanimate things, you are the Lord of creator and
protector as well, Oh! Prabho, kindly teach me how can I practice worship at
your lotus feet? Kindly describe the spiritual wisdom/Bhramavichara,
dispassion/Vairagya, and Maya/illusion, and most importantly the practice of
devotion/Bhakti, to achieve your eternal grace.”
