Chapter - 14– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Uththara Kanda – Lord Shambhu praising the splendor of Lord Sri Ramachandra along with Devi Janaki

 

While the whole crowd was witnessing the glorious coronation ceremony of Rama as King of Ayodhya, the Vandhigana sang in praise of the Lord and disappeared to the abode of Lord Bhrama. Sage Kakabhusundi speaks “Oh! Garuda, Lord Shambhu appeared before Lord of Raghu, his bodily hairs stood upright watching the mesmerizing appearance of Lord Sri Ramachandra along with Devi Vaidhehi, soon he was transported to a state of ecstasy, his voice trailed with various emotions, began to sing in praise of Lord Sri Ramachandra.”

Lord Shambhu eulogizes Lord Sri Ramachandra –

“Hail Lord Rama! Hail Lord Rama Ramana! Oh! Prabho, you are the dispeller of grief and agony of Samsara, you are the protector of souls, Oh! Avadhesha, Oh! Ramesha, kindly protects us. Oh! Prabho, you are the protector of souls from repeated births, you are omnipresent Bhramam personified as the son of King of Kosala, Oh! Lakshmipathi, I shall take shelter at your lotus feet, kindly protect me. Oh! Prabho, you have killed the mighty demon Ravana who has ten heads and twenty arms, and thereby protected the Earth from his atrocities and reduced the burden of the Earth. Oh! Prabho, the dreadful demons were killed in the vicious battle with your powerful arrows, like the swarm of moth burn to ashes in the fire, you have marvelous appearance wielded in bow and arrow, you have the effulgence of Sun which is capable to remove the darkness of impurities such as lust, desire, pride, ego, jealousy, interest in worldly matters and bondage of the Jeeva.  Oh! Prabho, Jeeva is drenched in the impurities of ignorance and arrogance, you are the hunter who pierces the heart of wicked with the powerful arrows, kindly protect the Jeeva who are soaked in the impurities of lust and desires, and keep wandering aimlessly in the wilderness of Samsara. Oh! Hari, Jeeva is swollen with pride, arrogance, illnesses, Jara, grief, anxieties, and fear, due to lack of devotion and faith at your lotus feet, and the Jeeva who driven afar from the devotion to your lotus feet continues to suffer by taking several births in the different Yonis. Whoever driven away from the lotus feet of you are constantly suffering from miseries and troubles, they are wretched and unhappy, continue to drift in the bottomless ocean of worldly existence. The fortunate and noble souls practice devotion, undertake austerities, listen to your endless glories, and serve the Santh, Mahathma selflessly, and keep remembering you gets easily cross the ocean of mundane existence. These fortunate ones are free from the Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, Mathshcharya, Ahamkara, Mamakara, and they are grown out of dualities of happiness and sorrow, joy and grief, good and evil, friends and enemies, etc.. they consider the worldly matters, richness, wealth, money, fame, are mere grass, they do not take pleasure in the company of children, wife, companion, and relatives, etc.. they undertake strict austerities, vows, celibacy, Yoga, Swadhyaya, Sathyam, Dhaya, Shaucham, Kshama, Thithiksha, ARjjavam, Dhanam, Ahimsa, Astheyam, etc..  remain in supreme bliss, and serve your lotus feet. They do not take pleasure in likes or dislikes and keep wandering on the Earth blissfully. Oh! Lord of Raghu, I shall take shelter at your lotus feet, you have been unconquerable, unrestrained in the battlefield, you reside in the lotus-like hearts of Sages and Rishis. Oh! Prabho, Sri Ramachandra, I repeatedly utter your sacred name and prostrate before you. Oh! Prabho, you are the purifier of Jeeva, you are the dispeller of birth and death as well. Oh! Lakshmiramana, who is the storehouse of virtues, valor, and amiability, I shall repeatedly prostrate before you. Oh! Sri Rama, Oh! Raghunandhana, kindly remove the sense of dualities/ grief and joy, sorrow and happiness, good and evil, honor and disgrace, etc. Oh! Mahipala, the protector of Earth, kindly shower your compassionate grace on us.”
