cease lamenting

 Jai Sri Ram,

Can you alter the decree of providence, cease lamenting, not an occasion for, on hearing the news Himachal came to the house along with Narada, 

Then Narada reassured them all, narrating the past history of Uma, He said, Mena hear my true words, your daughter is none other than Bhavani, the eternal consort of Shiva, mother of the universe, 

She is unborn and imperishable divine energy, which has no beginning, is Shiva's inseparable half, First she was born in the house of Daksha in the name of Sati, there she had married to Shiva,, 

Beheld Rama in way while returning home, did not listen to Shiva's advice and was beguiled into assuming the disguise of Sita, Shiva repudiated her, she visited sacrifice undertaken by her father and burnt herself in Yoga Agni, incarnated as Parvati now in your home,

Jai Mahadev

pain of childbirth

 Jai Sri Ram,

How strange that the creator who has made you so lovely, should have given you a crazy bridegroom, Taking you in my arm, I would sooner fall from a mountain top, cast myself into the flames or drown into the sea, let my home be ruined and let me earn a bad reputation but in case would I marry you with this manix so long there is life in me,

All the ladies assembled there were distressed when saw Maina distressed, Maina said 

What harm I have done to Narada that he should ruined my happy house, Why he destroy other's home, has neither shame nor fear, what a barren woman known the pain of childbirth,

Bhavani addressed Mother with prudent words, whatever is ordained by the providence cannot be altered, if I am destined to have a crazy husband, why should anyone be blamed for it, 

Jai Siya Ram

With great affection seated her in her laps, tears rushed to her eyes, when resembled the pair of blue lotus, who made you so beautiful, should have been stupid enough to give you such a raving madman for bridegroom,

gathering of immortals

 Jai Sri Ram,

Adoring themselves and decorating their vehicles, a party proceeded in advance to receive the procession with due favor,gladdened to heart the gathering of immortals

Happy to behold Vishnu, but when they started looking at shiva's retinue, it was alike a scene of horror, they flied in panic,

Adults recovered themselves and reamined where they were, while every child that ran for its life, reaching home, their parents questioned them, still shaking with fear, said, 

What shall we say, the sight was such as could not be described, they wanders as if it is bridegroom procession of procession of death,

Jai Siya Ram,

plendour of the city

 Jai Sri Ram,

The procession is now quite worthy of bridegroom, the processionist indulged in gaieties of various kinds as they went along, on otherside Himachal erected a most wonderful Pavilion which is beggared description, 

The whole host of woods, seas, rivers and ponds were invited, capable of taking any form they like it, assumed handsome figures and repaired to the house of Himalaya along with their retinue and fair consorts, sang festive songs out of affection, 

Mountain king already caused a number of houses to be tastefully decorated, the guest were lodged therein, each occupying a house befitting one's status, the splendour of the city was captivating, A glance at the beautiful city made the creative art of Brahma himself pale into insignificance, 

The City in which mother of the universe had embodied herself forth baffled all description, prosperity and success, wealth and happiness were always on the increase there and presented a new aspect,  when it was that the procession of the bridegroom close at hand, there was commotion in the city, which added to its charm, 

Jai Siya Ram.

wreath of human skulls

 Jai Sri Ram,

They relate the whole episode to him and he was much grieved to hear how Shiva burnt love god, sages then told him of the boon granted to Rati, himvan was much relieved to learn, Recalling the glory of Shiva Himachal respectfully summoned great sages, speedily got the exact time of wedding fixed, He handed over the note to seven sages, calling on Brahma they delivered the note, 

All gods began to adorn their vehicles and ariel carsauspicious omens were visible all around, the attendants of Shiva began to adorn their lord, his matted locks were formed in to crown, decked with crest of serpents, had serpents for his ear rings, bracelets, smeared his person with ashes and wrapped a lion's skin round his lion, bore the crescent on his charming brow, and river Ganga on the crown of his head and had three eyes and a serpent in the sacred thread,

His throat was dark with poison swallowed by him at the beginning of creation and had a wreath of human skulls about his neck, thus clad in a ghastly attire, was nonetheless an embodiment of blessing and merciful to the core, a trident and a Damaru adorned in hands, rode on a bull while musical instruments played, female divinities smiled to see him, the world has no bride worthy of bridegroom, they said to one another,

Vishnu, Brahma, and hosts of other gods joined the bridegroom's procession and rode on their respective vehicles, gathering of immortals was incomparable in every respect, however, was worthy of the bridegroomGod Vishnu then called all guardians of the different quarters and smilingly said, everyone of you should march separately, each with his own retinue, the procession, is no worthy of the bridegroom, hearing the words of Vishnu, gods smiles and parted, each with his won groupShiva laughed in his sleeves and noticed Sri Hari's humour

Jai Siya Ram

smitten with love

 Jai Sri Ram,

Gearing this, Bhavani said, O great sages, you have spoken arightaccording to your belief it is now that Shiva has burnt love god and till now he was smitten with love

To my mind Shiva is eternally in rapport with the infinite, unbegotten, irreprochable, passionless and without enjoyment, knowing him as such if I have served him, the gracious lord will accomplish my vow, 

Your version that Hara has burnet the love god betrays woeful lack of thought in youfire possesses this inherent property that frost can never approach it,

In case it does it must inveriable perishsimilar is the case with love god and the great Lord Shiva, hearing the words of Bhavani and perceiving her devotion and faith, the sages were gladened at heart, bowing their head to her, they went to Himachal,

Jai Siya Ram

dominating impulse

  Jai Sri Ram,

The heart of all immortals is seized with a dominating impulse, they long to witness your wedding with their own eyes, my lord, O humbler of the pride of lovedevise some means whereby we may be enabled to feast our eyes on this grand event, 

Having burnt the god of love you have done well in granting a boon to Rati, Parvati has practiced great penance which cannot be estimatedkindly accept her nowShiva gladly said Amen,

The gods thereupon sounded kettledrums, raining down flowers exclamation victory, victory to the lord of celestials, considering this an opportune moment, the seven sages arrived on the scene,

 Brahma immediately sent them to Himachal, first they reached at Parvati, said, relying on the advice of Narada you would not heed our remonstrances then, your vow failed now, Shiva has burnt the god of love, 

Jai Siya Ram

he alone can subdue that demon in battle

 Jai Sri Ram,

Seeing Parvati's devotion, enlightened sages exclaimedGlory to You, the mother of universe, You are Maya, while Shiva is God himself, bowing their head they departed, Thrill ran to the body of Parvati again and again with the words of sages, 

Sages went and dispatched Himachal to Girija, Sages called on to Shivarelate the truth, they experienced and went to their abode, Demon Taraka was flourishing and causing distract to gods, they approached Brahma, Brahma reassured them by saying, demon should die when the son sprong from loins of Shiva, for he alone can subdue that demon in battle,

They manage cupid to disturb the serene cult of Shiva to make him ready for merry with Parvati, god of love failed miserably to invoke Shiva for the cause of gods though he made to seized the mind of all including animate and inanimate, but it yields his end

Shiva mind too get afflicted, soon shiva In rage reduced love god to ashes, then console his wife Rati and relate the truth unto birth of her consort, till then, love gods dominate all even without body, In Krishna age, born as his son and you shall found him, all the gods reached Shiva and rejoiced at once,

 There the seers saw Gauri that Parvati, as if she were penance itself personified, the sages said, hear, Parvati, why are you practicing such rigorous penance, whom do you worship and what do you seek, why not confide to us the real secret,

 I feel very shy in making my submission, you will be amused to hear of my folly, yet my mind has taken a rigid attitude and heeds no advice, it would raise a wall on water relying to the truth of Narada's prophecy, long to fly even without wingslook at my madness, I always covet Shiva as my husband,

Sages laughed and Replied, tell us who has ever listened to Narada's advice and lived in his home, he astonished sons of Daksha, they never saw their home, he ruined the home of Citraketu and again Hiranyakashipu meet the similar fate, whosoever listen his advice are sure to leave their home and become medicent, 

Guileful at heart in garb of holy, wants to make everyone like himself, relying on his word looking for a consort that with inauspicious look, wear string of skulls, take serpents as an ornaments, is carefree, lives on alms, and enjoy sound sleep, CAN WOMAN STAY IN THE HOUSE OF HABITuaL ReCluSe,

send her back home

 Jai Sri Ram,

Now, Shiva, if you have any affection for melisten to my appealgo and marry Sailja, the daughter of Himachal, grant this boon to me, Shiva replied, though this is hardly justified, the word of master cannot be sat aside at the same time, 

The words of one's parents, teacher and master must be unquestionably obeyed as conductive to bliss, you are my supreme benefactor in everyway, therefore, I bow to your commands, the Lord, was pleased to hear the well chosen words of Sankara, which are inspired with devotion, wisdom and piety, 

The Lord Said, your vow has been set, now bear in mind what I have told you, saying so he went out of sight,

 Sankara cherished the impression of the vision in his heart, that very moment the seven sages called on shiva, the Lord spoke to them in most charming accents, going to parvati, you put her love to the test, then directing her father, Himachala, to her, send her back home and dispel her doubts,

Shiva's mind recoiled from everything,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Listen, O daughter of mountain king, your desire is accomplished, cease all your rigorous penance, Shiva be soon be yours,

There have been many self possessed and illumined sages, but none of them performed such penance as this, now cherish in your heart this supreme utterance from heaven, knowing it to be invariably true, and ever sacred,

There, ever since Sati went, quitted her body, Shiva's mind recoiled from everything, he ever repeated the name of Lord, heard the recitation of Rama's glory here and there,

Shiva, who by nature is embodiment of bliss, free from error, arrogance and desire, roamed about on earth with his heart fixed on Lord, Rama visited Shiva and admonished him in many ways and told him of the birth of Parvatinarrated in length the most pious doings of Girija,

Jai Siya Ram,

Sage Vedasira

 Jai Sri Ram,

The Sage Vedasira then came and consoled them all, they were comforted when they heard of the glory of Parvati,

Cherishing in her heart the feet of her dear lord, Uma went to the forest and began her penanceher delicate frame was little fit for austerities, yet she renounced all luxuries fixing her mind on the feet of her Lord,

Her devotion presented a new phase everyday, got absorbed in penanance that she lost the conscious of her body, thousand years she lived on roots and fruits, while another hundred years she subsisted on vegetables, for some days her only sustenance was air and water, while few days she observed a rigorous fast, 

Three thousand years she maintained herself on the withered leavesfinally she gave up even dry leaves, then came to be known as APARNA, living without leavesseeing her body emaciated through self mortification the deep voice of Brahma that creator resounded through heaven,

Jai Siya Ram,

 ai Sri Ram,

Again and again she hugged the child, her voice was choked with emotion and found tongue tied,

The mother of the universe, the all knowing Bhavani, then spoke the following soft words, which brought delight to her mother,

Listen, Mother, I relate to you a vision which I sawA handsome and fair complexion noble Brahman gave me the following exhortation, 

Recognizing the truth of Narada's words go and practice penance, austerity is conductive to joy, and put an end to sorrow, and evils, hearing these words the mother was filled with wonder, she sent for Himachal and communicated her vision, consoling her parents Uma set out for penance joyously, parents felt miserable but could not speak a word,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Put away all anxiety, my dear, said Himachal to his consort, fix your mind on the thoughts of Lord, 

He alone who has created the Parvati will bring her happiness, now if you cherish any love for your child, then go, and admonish her that she should practice austerity which will bring about her union with Shiva, there is no other way of overcoming sorrow, 

The words of Narada are pregnant and full of reason, Shiva is handsome and limit of beauty, mine of virtues, recognizing this truth do not entertain any misgiving, Shiva is irreprochable in everyway

Hearing the words from her consort Maina felt delighted at heart, she at once rose and went where Giriza Wasat the sight of Uma tears rushed to her eyes and she affectionately took the girl in her lap,

sage returned to the abode of Brahma

 Jai Sri Ram,

Shiva is known for being bestower of boons, is dispeller of the agony of the suppliant, an ocean of benevolence and the delight of devotees,

Without propitiating Shiva the object of one's desire cannot ne attained through millions of Yogic practices, and Japa,

So saying and with thought fixed on Sri Hari Narada gave his blessings to Girija, and said, Shed all fear, O lord of Mountainsall will now turn out well,

Having spoken thus, the sage returned to the abode of Brahma, Maina said to Himachal, my lord I could not follow the words of Narada, Uma is dear to me as my lifeif we fail to secure a match worthy of Girija, everyone will say Himalaya is dull by natureSaid Himachal, sooner shall the moon amit flames of the fire than the prophecy of Narada prove untrue,

wine becomes pure when it is poured into Ganga,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Holy men never drink wine even if to know that it has been made of water from Gangabut the same wine becomes pure when it is poured into Ganga,

The difference between the individual soul and the God should be similarly explained, Shiva is all powerful by nature, for he is no other than God, 

Hence matrimony with him will prove to be auspicious in everyway, Shiva is difficult to propitiate but is known for quickly please if earnest prayer is made,

Shiva alone can erase the lines of fateeven though there are many suitors in the world, there is no match for her except Shiva,

Sun, fire and Ganga incur no blame

 Jai Sri Ram,

Sage Said to Himalaya, O Himavan, whatever has been decreed by fate no one can change itno one can undo it, not even gods, human, Nagas or sages, 

Nevertheless I tell you one remedy, this may avail if heaven helps youUma will undoubtedly get such husband as I have described youbut whatever demerits I have shown in her bridegroom exist in Shiva,  if her marriage takes place with Shiva, everyone will call the demerits as good as virtues, 

Even though Sri Hari uses the serpent god as his coach and sleeps thereon, wise not blame, even so the sun and the fire absorbs moisture in all forms, but no one calls them name, again water of every description, pure as well impure, flows into the Ganga yet, no calls the celestial stream impure

Even the Sun, fire and Ganga incur no blame, if in pride of wisdom foolish men emulate the great, they are cast into the hell of Kalpa, Can embodied soul vie with God,

Sati Realize the warning imparted by Shiva

  Jai Sri Ram,

When Bhavani reached her Father's house, no one greeted her, except her Mother, sisters meet her with profuse smiles, 

Daksha would not even inquire about her health, burn all over with rage at the sight of Sati, then Sati went to the place of sacrifice, did not find any share of oblations set apart for Shiva,

Here Sati Realize the warning imparted by Shiva, her heart was at hidden fire as if the blaze the universe, her grief was beyond words, now she felt the insult of Shiva by her own family,

Although there are terrible agonies of various kind in this world, the insult offered to one's own people is the most painful of them all, it made Sati furious beyond horizon, her mother tries all to pacify her in many ways,

that is why insults us even uptil now

 Jai Sri Ram,

Sati felt very miserableher deep agony was beyond wordsafter eighty seven thousand years Shiva start muttering the name Rama at optimize vocal pitch, made Sati to know that Lord has awakened from its trance,

She went and bowed to Shiva, Shiva respectfully gave her seat to sit beside himsoon Sati came to know unto the Yajna being formed by his father, seek permission to visit her father's Yajna, Said, 

There is great rejoicing at my father's house, O Lord, if you grant me leave, I would fain to go and see it, Shiva replied in mild ascentyour suggestion is good but anomaly is that your father has sent no invitation, ignored us because of a grudge, 

In the court of Brahma he once took offence at my behaviorthat is why insults us even uptil now, if you go there uninvited, all decorum, affection and honor will be cast to the wind, there is no doubt that one should call on one's friend, master, father and Guru without wailing for formal invitation, yet where someone nurses a grudge against you, must avoid it, you reap no good by going thereHe expostulated with Sati in many ways, but miserable failed to convince her having reasoned her many ways Shiva gave many mighty attendants to escort her and sent her away,

beseech with joined palms

 Jai Sri Ram,

The grief that prayed on Sati's mind was ever new, for she did not know when She would cross the ocean of sorrow, said to herself, providence has repaid for my sins and has done only that which I deserved,

Now, O Godit does not behove you that you should make me survive even after alienating me from Sankara, anguish of her heart was beyond words, She invoked Rama in her heart, and addressed him thus, if they refer to you as compassionate to the poor and it Vedas have glorified, you as the dispeller of sorrow,

beseech with joined palms, O Lord, that I may be speedily rid of this body of mineif I have any devotion to the lotus feet of Shiva, if I am true to my vow in thought, word and deed,

Then, O all perceiving Lord, listen to me, and speedily devise some plan whereby I may die and be thus rid of this unbearable calamity without much exertion,

Trance,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Even water when mixed with milk sells as milk, look at the unifying process of love, however, is separated from the milk, and the taste also disappears the moment a drop of acid is introduced into it in the form of a falsehood,

Sati felt perturbed in her heart at the thought of what she had done, and the extend of her anxiety could neither be gauged nor described, She realized that Lord is supremely unfathomable ocean of mercy, hence he did not openly declare her fault,

From the attitude of Sankara, however, she judged that lord had abandoned her, and felt disturbed in her heart, conscious of her guilt she could not utter a word, but all the while her heart smouldered like a furnace,

Perceiving the sad look of Sati, Shiva narrated beautiful stories in order to divert her mind, relating various legends while on his way, reached Kailasha, then recalling his vow, Sambhu sat down there under a banyan tree in the Yogic posture, communed with his own self passed into unbroken Samadhi that Trance,

great sin to love

 Jai Sri Ram,

Sati has assumed the disguise of Sita, This Made Shiva Much DisconsolateIf I continue to love Sati as heretofore, the cult of devotion will disappear and wit will be indecorous on my part to do, Sati is Too Chaste to be Abandoned, and it is a great sin to love her any more as a wife,

The Great Lord Shiva uttered not a word aloud, although there was great agony in his heart,He bowed at his Lord, invoked Ramaidea came to his mind that he should have no connection with Sati so long she continued in that body and proceeded towards Kailasa fixed his mind on Rama,

Heavenly voice thundered forthGLORY TO GREAT SHIVA, who has so staunchly upheld the cause of devotion, WHO ELSE THAN YOU CAN TAKE SUCH A VOW, You are great devotee of Rama, 

Sati addressed Shiva in faltering voiceTELL ME, O MERCIFUL LORD, WHAT VOW YOU HAVE TAKENyou are embodiment of truth and compassion to pooreven though Sati enquired in ways more than one, Shiva spoke not a wordSATI CONCLUDED THAT SHIVA HAD COME TO KNOW EVERYTHING AND FELT SORRY THAT SHE HAD TRIED TO DECEIVE SHAMBHU

Sankara then looked within by contemplation, and come to know all that

  Jai Sri Ram,

When She opened her eyes and gazed once more, Sati saw nothing thererepeatedly bowing her head at the feet of Sri Rama, she proceeded to the spot where Shiva was,

When She came near, Lord Shiva smilingly enquired if all was well with her and then said, tell me the whole truth, how did you test Rama

Having realized the greatness of Rama, Sati in her awe concealed the truth from Shiva, Said, I MADE NO TEST MY LORD, I made obeisance just like you, what you said cannot be untrue, 

I am fully convinced in my heart, Lord Sankara then looked within by contemplation, and come to know all that Sati had doneagain he bowed His head to the delusive power of Sri Rama, that had prompted Sati to tell a lie, what has preordained by the will of Hari, must have its way, Shiva though within himself,

Each separate vision of Rama was attended by a whole host of gods with their feminine counterpartsas well as by the whole animate and inanimate creation with its multitudinous species, 

But while the gods who adored the lord appeared in diverse garbs, the appearance of Rama was the same in every case,

Hearing the soft and deep words of Ramashe became very shySati fearfully turn back, thinking deeply in her heart, I commit a grave mistake to disobey Shivawandering within herself, where should I go now, and a very painful wound arose,

Knowing Rama, Sati was in pain, revealed his glory to her, Sati saw going ahead Rama and his brother,Then she looked back, she saw the Lord with his brother and Sita in a beautiful attire,

took the form of Sita and walked on the path where the king of men was,

  Jai Sri Ram,

Thinking again and again in heartSati took the form of Sita and walked on the path where the king of men was,

Lakshmana looked at Uma and was surprised and there was a lot of confusion in the heart, could not say anything very seriously, the Lord knows the power of the wise,

The lord knows all about the deceitful act of Devi Sati, knower of all the worlds knows everything,

The one who remembers Lord Rama, ignorance is dispelled at once, this is truth of the lord of all worlds, to such a Lord Sati wants to deceive through her elusive form

  Jai Sri Ram,

If you have grave doubt in your mind, why not go and verify the thingI shall be waiting in the shade of Banyan tree till you come back, Using your critical judgement you should resort to some device whereby the stupendous error of your ignorance may be rectified, 

Thus attaining leave of Shiva, Sati, proceeded on her mission, She racked her brains to find out what step she should take in order to test the divinity of Rama, 

On this side Shiva came to the conclusion that mischief was in store for Sati, when her doubt did not yield even my assurances, he Said to himself, it seems the stars are unpropitious to her and no good will come out of it, 

After all, whatever Sri Rama has willed must come to pass, why should one add to the complication by indulging in further speculation, so saying Lord Shiva began to mutter the name of Sri Hari, while Sati proceeded the spot where the all blissful Rama was, 

Jai Siya Ram

Shiva repeated this time after time,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Look here, Sati, the woman is foremost in you, you should never harbour such doubt in your mind, He is no other than Rama, the hero of Raghu Race, my beloved deity, whose story was sung bu jar born sage Agastya, 

Faith in whom was the subject of talk I gave to him and whom illumined sages ever wait upon, he who has embodied himself forth as the jewel of Raghu's Race for the sake of his devotees is no other than supreme eternal,

He is all pervading and ever free, who is ruler of the worlds and Lord of Maya whom illumined sages, Yogis and Siddhas constantly meditate upon with their sinless mind and whose glory is sung was the Vedas as well as the Purushas and other scriptures in negative terms as not that,

Although Shiva repeated this time after time, his exhortation made no impression on the heart of Sati, then Shiva smilingly said, realizing in his heart and potency of Sri Hari,

Jai Siya Ram

for the sake of gods

 Jai Sri Ram,

Even Vishnu who takes a human form for the sake of gods, is omniscient like the slayer of Tripura, 

Can he wander in search of his consort like an ignorant, who is repository of knowledge, Lord of goddess Laxmi, and slayer of demons

The word of Shambhu cannot be false, everyone knows that he is all wise, thus her mind was filled with an interminable series of doubts, her heart could not pacify her by any mean, 

Although goddess Parvati did not open her lips, Shiva, who is inner controller of all, came to know everything,

Jai Siya Ram,

distressed at the loss

  Jai Sri Ram,

The lord was thus lost in reveriemeanwhile the vile Ravana took him the demon Marica, who forth assumed the illusory form of a deer,

The Ravana carried off Sita by fraud, the lord's real might wsa not known to himhaving killed antelope Rama returned with his younger brother, 

 His eyes was filled with tears when saw the empty hermitage, Rama distressed at the loss like a mortal man, and two brother roamed about the woods in search of her, He who knows neither union nor separation showed unmistakable signs of grief born of separation, 

Exceedingly mysterious are the ways of the Lord, the supremely wise alone can comprehend them, the dull witted in their height of folly imagine something quite different,

Jai Siya Ram

obtain a sight of him

  Jai Sri Ram,

During those days, with a view to relieving of the earth, Sri Hari had descended in the line of Raghus, renouncing his right to the throne at the word of father, immortal Rama was wondering in the dandaka forest in the garb of an ascetic, 

Shiva kept pondering as he went, How can I obtain a sight of him, the lord embodied himself forth secretly, and if I visit him, everyone will know who he is

In Sankara heart there was a great lumult, Sati, however, had no inking of this secret, His mind Says Tulsidas, apprehended lest the secret might disclosed while the temptation of obtaining a sight of lord made his eyes wistful,

Ravana had sought from Brahma the boon of death at the hand of a human, and the lord would have the words of Brahma come true, if I did not go to meet him, I shall ever regret it, Shiva pondering but found no solution to the puzzle,

Jai Siya Ram,

Sage Yajnavalakya smilingly said, the glory of Rama is already known to you, you are a devotee of Rama in thought, word and deed, I have come to know your ingenuity, you wish to hear an account of the hidden virtues of Rama,

doubt haunts my mind

 Jai Sri Ram,

A great doubt haunts my mind, Holy Sir, the whole mystery of the Vedas stands revealed to you,I am afraid and ashamed to utter the doubt and I lose a great opportunity if I keep it back,

The saint lay down the rule, and Vedas as well as the Puranas and sages too loudly proclaim, that pure wisdom cannot be dawn in the heart, would one keep anything concealed from one's spiritual preceptor,

Remembering this I disclose my folly, dispel it, taking pity on this servant, my Lord, Saints and all ancient scripture declared that potency of the name Rama is unlimitedthe immortal lord Shiva, who is the fountain of joy and a storehouse of wisdom and goodness, incessantly repeat it, 

There are four broad divisions of living beings in the world, such of them as die in the city of Kashi attain to highest State, for it is this very name That Shiva mercifully impart to the dying soul in Kashi,

Jai Siya Ram,

Creature wanderings in pursuits of sensuous pleasures,

 Jai Sri Ram,

The way the four brothers look at one another meet and love one another, their mirth and their ideal brotherliness, my intense longing, supplication and humility represent the not inconsiderable lightness of this pure and holy water,

The marvelous water heals by the mere hearing, quenches the thirst of desire and washes the dirt of the mind, the water nourishes true love for Rama, and drives away the sins of Kali age, relieves the fatigue of transmigration, gratifies gratification itself,

It wipes out lust anger and pride and infatuation, and enhances pure wisdom, and dispassion, by reverently bathing in it, and drinking it sanctify the heart, 

Creature wanderings in pursuits of sensuous pleasures, will come to grief even as a thirsty deer runs after a mirage mistaken it for water, and returned disappointed,

Jai Siya Ram,
