Chapter - 72– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Uththara Kanda – There is not a single creature in the Universe free from the Maya/illusion of Mayapathi

 

Sage Kakabhusundi speaks “ Oh! Garuda, Maya is the formidable army of Mayapathi/Lord Sri Ramachandra encompassed the Universe, and Anger and greed as its generals, the Hypocrisy, deceitfulness, and gossip are the champions in the army of Maya. It is inseparable from the supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra, though it’s unreal, hence I strongly admit that there is no escape from the Maya without the grace of Lord Rama. Maya persuades the living and non-living things in the Universe, and makes them dance to her tune, she dances at the mere movement of the eyebrows of the Lord Sri Ramachandra, like the stage full of various characters. Oh! Garuda, the supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra is absolute bliss, wisdom, virtue, valor, and beauty. He is all-pervasive Bhramam which is pure, unblemished, changeless, free from afflictions, has neither birth nor death, unfailing, attributeless, resides as a soul in the Jeeva. It is the source of functioning of mind, intellect, Chiththa, Ahamkara, Prana, Karma, and Gnanendhriyas. He is supreme Bhramam, indestructible Purusha, inseparable from Maya/Prakrithi that has destructible nature. He is unblemished and pure, as the Sun that never gives space for the darkness.”
