Chapter - 52– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Uththara Kanda – The glorious legend of Rama would flourish the pure love and devotion in the hearts of listeners, and it is the gateway to liberation from the sufferings of worldly existence and repeated births

Maharishi Narada after singing in praise of Lord Sri Ramachandra, returned to his abode Bhramaloka, contemplating upon Lord Rama who is the ocean of bliss and beauty. Lord Shambhu speaks “Oh! Girija, I have explained the splendor of Lord Sri Ramachandra according to my intellect, the legends of Rama are infinite, and beyond description, even the Veda and Devi Sharada are incompetent to describe them all. Oh! Devi, the splendor of Rama is countless as his virtues, his various incarnations and amusements are beyond description as his sacred names, would it be possible to count the raindrops? Or the grain of sand? In the same manner, the virtues and passionate sports of Lord Rama are countless. The glorious legend of Rama would flourish the pure love and devotion in the hearts of listeners, and it is the gateway to the liberation from the sufferings of worldly existence and repeated births as well. Whoever reads and listens to the glorious legend of Sri Ramacharitha would achieve perpetual devotion at the lotus feet of Rama. Oh! Devi Uma, I have explained from all those glorious myths of Lord Sri Ramachandra which was earlier described by Sage Kakasbhusundi to Garuda, I have recollected a few and described them to you, hence what would you like to hear from me?”
