Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Uththara Kanda – The pure love at the lotus feet of Lord Rama is the source of devotion

 


Chapter -89 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Uththara Kanda – The pure love at the lotus feet of Lord Rama is the source of devotion

 

Sage Kakabhusundi speaks “Oh! Khagapathi, the men and women of the Kingdom of Ayodhya, including the supreme Lord Shambhu took great pleasure in the various amusement of infant Rama. Lord Shambhu attired in a garland of the skull, smeared in sacred ashes, adorned in serpents as ornaments, attired in the skin of a leopard, was present to witness the various amusement of infant Rama, and whoever witnessed that lovely childhood sport of Rama won’t yearn for the achievement of Bhramam not even in their dream. Thus, I have lived in Ayodhya for a few years and took great pleasure in the childhood sport of infant Rama, after obtaining the grace of that Lord, and perpetual devotion as a boon, I have returned to my hermitage and continued meditation and contemplation upon Lord Sri Hari, afterward I have not fallen victim of the formidable Maya of that Mayapathi Lord Rama. Oh! Garuda, I have narrated how the Maya of that Mayapathi made me dance to her tune, Oh! Khagapathi, I shall tell you the truth, unless and until we worship at the lotus feet of Lord Rama, our troubles will not end. Oh! King of birds, the devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Rama can’t be achieved without his grace, without firm faith you cannot achieve love at the lotus feet of Lord Rama. Therefore, pure love at the lotus feet of Lord Rama is the source of ‘Devotion’/Bhakthi.”
