Chapter - 115– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Lanka Kanda – Lord Shambhu eulogizes the splendor of Rama

 

The deities eulogized the splendor of Lord Sri Ramachandra along with Devi Janaki, and Lakshman, and returned to their respective abodes. The supreme Lord Shambhu arrived before Lord Rama and greeted him with great affection, bowed his head, with folded hands, eyes full of tears, the slayer of demon Tripura/Thripurari, began to eulogize Rama, his voice trailed with various emotions.

“Oh! Raghukulanayaka,  who is wielded on bow and arrows kindly protects us, Oh! Prabho, you are the delight of deities, you are the dispeller of ignorance like the wind disperses the mass of clouds, the fire that consumes the entire forest like arrogance and misconceptions. Oh! Prabho, you have Saguna and Nirgunaswaroopa, you are the storehouse of virtues, and you have the charming appearance, you are that midday sun which scatters away from the delusion on the Jeeva. You are the lion that kills the untamed elephant-like lust, anger, jealousy, pride, desire, of the Jeeva. Oh! Prabho, you are too kind and compassionate to Jeeva, you are the destroyer of frost-like lust on the lotus flowers. You are that mount Mandhara churns the worldly existence, kindly remove our anxiousness and fears, and guide us to cross the stormy ocean of worldly existence. Oh! Prabho, Sri Ramachandra, you have the stunningly marvelous appearance, beautiful lotus-like eyes, you are the storehouse virtues, you are the dispeller of agony and grief, kindly reside in our hearts with Devi Janaki, and your younger brother Lakshman. Oh! Lord of Tulsidas, dispeller of fear and anxieties, the delight of Mahathma and noble souls, kindly protect us.”
