Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Aranya Kanda – Jatayu eulogizes the splendor of Lord Rama



Chapter – 31 (2)– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Aranya Kanda– Jatayu eulogizes the splendor of Lord Rama

 

Rama spoke in tears “Oh! Noble soul, do not let my father know about the abduction of Devi Seetha by the ten-headed Ravan, If I was not that Paramathma, the whole clan of Ravana would have perished by now.” Soon Jayatu left his mortal coil and assumed a divine form of Lord Sri Hari, attired in magnificent clothes, adorned in marvelous jewels and Vanamala, four arms, beautiful limbs of dark cloud complexioned, his eyes were overflowing with tears and eulogized Rama.


“ Hail Rama!  Hail Rama who is Nirguna and Sagunaswaroopa Paramathma Parambhramam ! Oh! Prabho, you are absolute consciousness, free from impurities, unblemished, pure, has neither birth nor death, you are Mayapathi who is inseparable from Maya, but free from delusion. You are the essence of Triguna/Sathvik, Rajasik, and Thamasik, Oh! Prabho, your ferocious bow, and arrows are capable to tore off the dreadful demon Ravana into pieces, I shall repeatedly prostrate before the supreme Lord Rama who is the ornament of the Raghu clan, protector of the Earth and noble souls, he has an attractive dark cloud complexion, he has beautiful lustrous face resemble the autumn moon, he has lovely eyes resemble the red lotus flower petals, he has long powerful arms, he is the source of liberation from the repeated births. Oh! Prabho, you are self-restraint, unfathomable, you are that supreme Bhramam which has no dualities/Dhvandhabhava, grief, and agony, happiness, and sorrow, gain, and loss, good and evil, etc. you are eternal, you are not perceivable, you are perceivable through the austerities, Shamadhamadhi, pure love and devotion, meditation and contemplation, etc. you are the dispeller of darkness of ignorance, dualities of birth and death, pleasure and pain, etc. Oh! Prabho, you are the protector of the Universe, you are the preserver of the Earth, you are the delight of noble souls, ascetics, Rishis, and Sages, who constantly pronounce your sacred name ‘Rama’. I shall worship Lord Sri Ramachandra who is dispassionate and removes the impurities of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, Mathshcharya, Ahamkara, and Mamakara of the Jeeva. The Veda highly eulogizes the glories of that all-pervasive supreme Bhramam as blameless, pure, dispassionate, free from impurities, which is attainable after the several austerities and extreme penance by the Rishis and Sages, undertaking the path of Bhakti, Gnana, and Vairagya. Oh! Prabho, you are an ocean of mercy, the supreme bliss personified on the Earth, entices all the animate and inanimate things. He represents a honey bee that takes pleasure in the lotus-like heart of devotees, he has great effulgence, excels in the loveliness of several thousands of Kamadeva. Oh! Prabho, you are perceivable for the noble souls, and imperceivable for the wicked, you are impartial, the Yogis perceive your eternal presence with their austerities and penance, Oh! Rama, Oh! Lakshmipathi, have you ever been ignored the cries of your devotees? May that Supreme Lord Rama whose remembrance would eradicate the repeated births reside in my heart permanently.”
