Chapter – 10 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda –Sri Ramacharitha illustrates the virtues and splendor of Lord Sri Ramachandra, was composed out of pure love and devotion

My desires are high, but I have very little knowledge to put into work, I have a feeble mind, even though I have made an attempt to describe the glories of Sri Ramachandra, I hope the Sri Ramacharitha describes the splendor and virtues of Lord Sri Ramachandra would please the noble-souls, Santh and Mahatmas, and it would definitely cause a ridicule smile on the face of wicked people. The Jeeva who have no interest in poetry or devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra would laugh at the composition of mine, as the crow gets jealous of the melodious sound of cuckoos, the cranes mock at the Swan for their elegant style of walking, the frog take pleasure in mocking the Chakora yearn to consume droplets from Swathinakshathra, and no doubt the people who lack poetic skills and ignorant would definitely pass disparaging comments on it. I am quite certain that the Jeeva who have no faith and devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra won’t take pleasure in it, or this composition sounds soothing to their ears. The pious who have immense faith and devotion at the lotus feet of Hari and Hara,  do not take pleasure in material matters of destructible Prakrithi, got rid of interest in worldly matters, free from impurities of jealousy, anger, pride, lust, desire, would take immense pleasure in the legend of Lord Sri Ramachandra who is eminent among the Raghu clan. I am not a poet, or intellectual or I have no knowledge or skills in arts and science, I don’t know grammar, vocabulary, construction of words etc. hence I am certain that there would be several critical errors in this composition was written out of pure love and devotion, unlike the excellent work of illustrious writers, poets, scholars, and intellectuals.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The universe and it's living and non-living things represent the supreme Lord/Sarvam Khalvitham Bhrama – The noble-souls/Sadhu Santh Mahathma resembles unfathomable ocean of wisdom and virtues

 

Chapter – 9 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The Universe and it's living and non-living things represent the supreme Lord/Sarvam Khalvitham Bhrama – The noble-souls/Sadhu Santh Mahathma resembles an unfathomable ocean of wisdom and virtues

 

I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra who is the essence of the Universe and its living and non-living things. I shall bow down before the all-pervasive Supreme Lord who represents Vidhya/wisdom and Avidhya/ignorance, Guna/virtues and Dhosha/sins, Kala/Time, Karma/deeds, cause, and effect, good and evil, etc. I shall prostrate before the supreme Lord who is the essence of Lord of Day/Surya who nourishes the life on the Earth, and Lord of night/Moon who put off the creatures in rest with its cool rays.  The intellectuals are thoroughly aware of the fact that the evil association would destroy the purity of the mind, hence they keep afar from the interest in worldly matters and attachment to people, same as the planets, medicines, water, air, and garments would portrait its nature of good or bad from its association. I shall prostrate before the Deva, Dhanava,  Manushya, Kinnara, Naga, Gandharva, Khaga, Pithru, Pretha, Rajanichara, and earnestly pray to be gracious upon us on all the occasions.

 

I shall prostrate before the Eight million and four hundred thousand creatures on the planet Earth, divided as aquatic animals, animals on the land and air are the creation of the Supreme Lord Seetha Rama, kindly recognize me as your servant and shower Your grace upon me. I have no intellectual power to describe the all-pervasive Bhramam incarnated as Lord Sri Ramachandra on the Earth, to alleviate the sufferings and sorrows of the Jeeva, destroy the wicked and arrogant demons caused a burden to Earth, and provide bliss to the noble souls. I am a dull-minded Jeeva taken a huge step to the describe the virtues and splendor of Lord of Raghu, Lord Sri Ramachandra, resemble the unfathomable ocean, my aspirations are out of reach like yearning to achieve nectar with no means, not even to procure buttermilk. I am certain that the noble and virtuous would listen to my childish talk praising the virtues of Lord Sri Ramachandra with great interest and love, and forgive my mistakes, they would consider it as the prattle of their child, and the mischievous people who enjoy finding fault in others would get amused. This world is an abundance of Jeeva drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara, like the rivers and streams swell upon the arrival of rain waters and sudden flood takes away several lives mercilessly.  At the same time, there is no scarcity of the noble-souls resemble the mighty ocean that graciously embrace the waters from all the water bodies, and swells only at the sight of the moon.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The influence of Kala/Time, Karama/deeds, Guna/virtues, and Swabhava/attributes cause grief and sufferings

 

Chapter – 8– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The influence of Kala/Time, Karama/deeds, Guna/virtues, and Swabhava/attributes cause grief and sufferings

 

The Universe is the place of good and evil, living and non-living things. The Santh Mahathmas/noble- souls abandon the impurities, Ahamkara, Mamakara, interest in worldly matters are compared to Hamsa/Swan, that has the tremendous skill to separate the milk from the water, hence these Mahatmas always live in supreme bliss. The Kala/Time, Guna/virtues, Karma/deeds, Swabhava/attributes necessitate the Jeeva to get shackled in Maya/illusion and ignorance, even the goodness in the Jeeva gets tarnished by the above-mentioned elements. The Jeeva who have taken shelter at the lotus feet of Lord Hari, get rid of the impurities of anger, ego, lust, desire, pride, and jealousy, Ahamkara, Mamakara, interest in worldly matters get relieved from the sufferings and grief of Samsara. The Jeeva drenched in the material matters/Prakrithi gets inspired to perform righteous deeds due to the association with the noble and saintly men, take pride in it, and remain deceitful as always, and they will have the fate of the demon Kalanemi appeared as an ascetic before Hanuman at the command of Ravana, while Hanuman was in search for the medicinal herb to restore the life of Lakshman in the battlefield.  Kalanemi purposefully played a trick on Hanuman to distract him and create obstacles to his task. The mere appearance as an ascetic of Kalanemi caught the entire attraction of Hanuman, ultimately met miserable death in the hands of Hanuman. The demon Ravana who was disguised as an ascetic appeared before Devi Sita met a terrible death in the hands of Rama on the battlefield and the demon Rahu who disguised as a deity while serving the nectar of immortality got his head severed by Lord Vishnu, all these demons presented as noble with their uncanny appearance, met disastrous end. The virtuous were the Jambavan who was a mighty bear in the army of Sugriva, famous for his bravery and Hanuman/Kapeeshwara who is the Lord of Vanaras were highly honored and praised for their generosity and fearlessness. Therefore, the Veda and scriptures emphasize the association of the Sadhu Santh, Mahathma who have abandoned the Samsara, interest in worldly matters, Ahamkara, Mamakara, and impurities of the mind as a Trina/grass, would inspire the Jeeva to perform austerities, vow, and strictly follow truthfulness, kindness, compassion, humanity, celibacy, non-violence, hygiene/mental as well as physical etc. The Jeeva who have achieved the purity of mind won’t get malignant even if they get stuck in the middle of the wicked, and they would remain unblemished, like the dust particle raised on the atmosphere can’t taint the sky. The parrot nurtured in the houses of virtuous would mimic the sacred name of Lord Rama and the unfortunate ones are taken care by the wicked keep mimic abuses.  The fire burns all those in contact with it, turn to coal that can be utilized as an ink to write scriptures and sacred texts. The essential elements such as water, air, and fire immensely contribute to flourishing life on the Earth.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The Universe is the place of ‘good and evil’ – The Veda and scriptures emphasize the necessity to follow righteousness/Dharma

 

Chapter – 7 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The Universe is the place of ‘good and evil’ – The Veda and scriptures emphasize the necessity to follow righteousness/Dharma

The scriptures brilliantly describe the process of churning the milky ocean for the nectar of immortality collectively by the Devas and Dhanavas, during this process, the first thing that came out in the open was toxic poison, that was gracefully accepted by Lord Mahadeva, thus restored peace in the world, further, the process of churning continued, and many precious things like Airavatha, Ucchaishravas, Lord Chandra, Goddess Mahalakshmi and precious gems, Kalpavruksha, Varuni, and finally, the nectar of immortality emerged out of the ocean. Hence, the Universe is the place of ‘good and evil’, the piousness brings the serenity of mind and the evilness disrupt the peace and happiness. The scriptures and Vedas emphasize whoever follow the righteousness, truthfulness, kindness, compassion, non-violence, perfect control over sense, austerities, knowledge of self, would inherit supreme bliss and serenity of mind, perceive the omnipresent Bramham/Oneness-in-all and the Jeeva drenched in Ahamkara, Mamakara, lust, anger, ego, jealousy, and pride would undergo constant grief and sufferings meets miserable death ultimately heaves to the vicious cycles of rebirth. The Universe is the reservoir of ‘goodness and evilness’ are pair of opposite like happiness and sorrow, respect and disrespect,  pleasure and pain, devoutness and sin, day and night, birth and death, supreme Bhramam/eternal truth/Paramathma Parambhramam and  illusion/Maya, indestructible Purusha and destructible Prapancha/Prakrithi, richness and poverty, King and pauper, the sacred land of Kashi, and the cursed land Magadha, the sacred Ganga which is the purifier of souls and the river Karmanasha that takes away all the devoutness of the Jeeva, the deserted land of Maravara and flourished land of Malava, the twice-born/Bhramin considered as Bhudevatha/Lord on Earth and tribes who feed on animal, heaven and hell,  attachment and dispassion.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The disparities between the ascetic and the Jeeva drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara

 

Chapter – 6 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The disparities between the ascetic and the Jeeva drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara

 

I shall offer salutation to the ascetics who are the purifier of the Earth,  free from impurities of Ahamkara and Mamakara lacks interest in worldly matters of fleeting nature/destructible Prapancha, grown out of pain-causing dualities of happiness and sorrow, grief and pain, respect, and disrespect, and perceive the omnipresent Bhramam/indestructible Purusha resides as a soul in the Jeeva/Oneness-in-all. I shall offer salutation to the Vishayijeeva drenched in the worldly matters, Ahamkara and Mamakara, engage in immoral deeds, finds pleasure in causing grief to others, wicked burn with jealousy in the welfare and happiness of others, no matter whether they are companions or enemies. I shall offer salutation to the ascetic who is free from the impurities of Ahamkara and Mamakara, causes pain while leaving this world and the wicked who finds pleasure in the ill-fortune of others, causes pain while living on the Earth. The huge difference is that the ascetics resemble a lotus flower, and the wicked represent leech that causes to bleed, even though both are born of attributes and previous Karma in the unfathomable ocean of Samsara. The two categories of Jeeva yield the merits of their actions in a different manner, the ascetics are grown out of differences and dualities, achieves permanent bliss with the extreme penances and austerities, vows, Swadhyaya, Athmavichara and Shamadhamadhi symbolizes the cool rays of the full moon, is the purifier of the Earth/movable King of river Prayaga, represents the river Ganga. The Jeeva drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara, spew venom, resemble the inauspicious river Karmanasha that takes away all the righteousness in the Kali era.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The salutation to Santh Mahathma and the Vishayi Jeeva who is drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara

 

Chapter – 5 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The salutation to Santh Mahathma and the Vishayi Jeeva who is drenched in Ahamkara and Mamakara

 

I shall prostrate before the ascetics who have no friend or enemy, favorable or unfavorable, happiness or sorrow, respect or disrespect, joy or grief, are grown far beyond the dualities of Samsara, they are impartial like the fragrance of the Jasmine flowers kept on the palm, they are free from the impurities of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha and Mathshcharya, Ahamkara, Mamakara, interest in worldly matters, hence I shall repeatedly bow down before the lotus feet of the ascetics and sincerely request like a child to shower their compassionate grace upon me to achieve  the selfless devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra.

 

I shall offer salutation to the Vishayijeeva/drenched in the material matters, Ahamkara and Mamakara, hostile to the innocents, finds pleasure in others trouble and ill-fortune, desolation, and get jealous of others welfare. The wicked and ignorant who spread misbelief in Veda, Scriptures, deities, trinities, etc. like the Rahu and Kethu causes an eclipse of Sun and Moon respectively. These ignorant are like the demon Sahasrabhahu who is haughty of his might achieved as a boon after several thousand years of penance, these wicked people enjoy causing miseries and grief to others with all might, their anger resembles fire, and fearless to  challenge Lord Yama, these people are like Kumbhakarna who enjoys long years of sleep and the comet which causes harm other than nothing, hence their destruction is propitious to the world. These wicked and arrogant Jeeva harm others in all possible ways, like the snow in the paddy field gets dissolved by destroying the crop. I shall offer salutation to those wicked Jeeva who is fierce as the thousand tongued serpents Adishesha, sadly, they utilize their vicious tongue to find fault in others. I shall prostrate before King Prithu who desired to have thousands of ears to listen to the glories of the Supreme Lord, sadly the wicked Jeeva enjoys listening to the ill fame and rumors as if they have possessed thousands of ears. I shall offer salutation to the wicked find fault in others as if they have possessed thousands of eyes like Lord Indhra who is the Lord of deities, has possessed thousands of eyes, and Vajrayudha as a weapon, sadly the wicked Jeeva uses thousands of eyes to find fault in others.

Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Sri Tulsidas Maharaj – Bala Kanda – The splendor of Sadhu Sangama/the association with the Santhbrindh Mahathma

 

Chapter – 4 – Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Bala Kanda – The splendor of Sadhu Sangama/the association with the Santhbrindh Mahathma

The fruitfulness of the rarest birth achieved as a human is the attainment of Dharma/righteousness, Arththa/wealth, Kama/desires, and Moksha/free from dualities of grief and joy, respect and disrespect, happiness and sorrow.  The association with the ascetics, Sadhu Santh Mahathma would provide the fruitfulness of life and commendable rewards of the dip in the king of holy Theertha/Prayag instantly, like the crow transformed into a Cuckoo, and the Raven into a swan.  Maharishi Narada who was born to a servant maid in his previous birth has achieved the association of the Santh Mahathma, engaged in the relentless service of them, thus attained the birth of illustrious Sage. Maharishi Balmiki who was a hunter in a previous life had the fortune to meet the Saptharishis, took shelter in the Ramanama, and achieved the birth of ‘Adhikavi’ and Ghatasambhava/Sage Agasthya who was born at the touch of Varuna, have described their lives and the transformation they have achieved with the association of the saintly people. The Jalachara/aquatic animals, Sthalachara/animals on the Earth, Nabhachara/humans whoever attained the association of ascetic has achieved an abundance of fruitfulness in their lives, they have achieved wisdom, purity, prosperity, serenity, and liberation from the repeated cycles of birth, hence the Veda and scriptures highly eulogizes the Sadhu Samagama/association with the ascetics. The attainment of Parmaraththa Thaththva/all the material matters have impermanent nature, hence the happiness derived out of the attachment to these material matters and infinite Nama Roopa Dhrishya has impermanent nature too.  The Jeevathma is Paramathma, soul/Athman is eternal, changeless, free from affliction, pure, unblemished, and has neither birth nor death, hence the attachment to the imperishable Paramathma Parambhramam is blissful. The achievement of Paramarththa Thaththva is unattainable without the association of the Santhbrindh Mahathmas, and the achievement of the association with the ascetics is impractical without the grace of the Supreme Lord Sri Ramachandra. The association with the Santh Mahathma is the root of bliss elevates the Jeeva from the grief and sufferings of worldly existence caused by the ignorance and illusion, it makes the life of the Sadhaka fruitful with the achievement of contentment and bliss/free from the sufferings of dualities. It is the same as the association of the deceitful and wicked changes the life of a Jeeva, the association with these noble souls transforms the ignorant Jeeva into pious and fortunate. The Jeeva who has achieved the purity and serenity of the mind with the association of these noble souls, will not lose their nobleness even if they fall into the wicked association, they would keep upright the virtues like the serpent hold the gem on its forehead. The benefits of ‘Sadhu Santh Samagama’ was highly eulogized by illustrious Rishis and Sages, like Maharishi Valmiki, Lord Bhrama, Vishnu, and Shiva, hence I have little to describe it.  Although I am an unworthy Jeeva, I shall make fullest efforts to describe the glories of the association of Sadhu Santh Mahathma, it would be like the street vendor speaking about the precious gems.
