श्री राम - जय राम - जय जय राम

श्री सुन्दरकाण्ड

I adore the lotus feet of blissful lord
The very mine of compassion,
Dispeller of all sins,
Appear in the form of human through his illusion,
The greatest of all gods knowable through the wisdom of Vedanta,
Bestower of supreme peace in the form of beatitude,
Placid,
Eternal sinless and all pervading

I adore the lotus feet of blissful lord indwelling the hearts of all and request under his kind honor to grant intense devotion on the subject of life and make the mind free from varying faults of ignorance.

I adore the lotus feet of blissful Sri Hanuman ji, son of the wind god & beloved devotee of lord Rama, repository of all virtues, foremost among wise, great fire to consume the forest of demon race, heaving body shining like any think and very house of immeasurable strength.

Obeisance to the lotus feet of sri hanuman ji who start this very journey with all humble mode and request to his companion for a cool wait till he be back after the task to reach at and convey the message of lord to sita ji.

Sri hanuman ji was on his way by the time an ancient mount in the ocean named menaak appears out with all humble request for a pause on him to relax a bit on the words of gods in the sky but sri hanuman ji just oblige him by touching it and continue to his divine flight for a cause.

It is Sursa{demoness form} now come in between to testify the sharpness of mind and interactive skill of Sri Hanuman ji in the midst of sky , she open her mouth so long to grab him but Hanuman ji through his mystic power enlarge his body double then the mouth of sursa then request her to let it be pass through on a noble job for his master but when she was reluctant then sri Hanuman ji prove so by entering in to her mouth with the smallest ever size and make her realize the bare facts unto might of Hanuman, then she blessed human ji for success in mission.

Then there had been a more task to pacify in true tone about a miserable demon who was habitual of crook practices to hunt the birds in sky just for feed and there Sri Hanuman ji realize her poor state and liberate her from that sinful life.

And at the very next moment Hanuman ji reaches at the destination Sri Lanka where sita ji was kept by the demon king at a hidden place. Hanuman ji have a bird’s eye view of the state which was amazing all the way. Beautiful houses hard to narrates through words, gold carvings all over, powerful demons and beauty of the planets, great sages as well malefic mystics are on their way to enlighten the pace of state.
Sri Hanuman ji decide to enter in Lanka at night with a smallest form in search of divine mother Sri Sita ji.

As Sri Hanuman ji enter in the city and get noticed by security guard named a Lankini {ladies demon} and she stopped Hanuman ji, then Hanuman ji gave hard blow to her which make her remind of the words of sri Brahma ji about this incident, she with both folded hand submit self in the lotus feet of sri Hanuman ji with a quote that association of saints brings infinite joy which out weight the delights of even heaven together with bliss of final beatitude, the same I attained today by the mercy of lord, I am highly obliged to have sighted you though for a moment & requested Hanuman ji to enter the city for the cause of lord by whose very name foes tern friends and poison become nectar.

Sri Hanuman ji start the task assigned to him all over where it could have been feasible along with the palace of demon king Ravana but Sri Hanuman ji remain bare from any news about. During his continued efforts he noticed a mansion reflecting the very signs of worship of lord Rama.

Sri Hanuman ji rejoiced to see the cluster of Holy basil plants in varying modes bearing infinite beauty. By the time Vibhishan wake up with chanting the name of lord in the per-stage of morning, Sri Hanuman ji meet him with all devotional spirit & introduce self and motive about. Both rejoiced and praise the version of lord with wonderful words.

Sri Hanuman ji collect all the information about Sri Sri Sita ji and take a leave from saintly soul and great devotee of Lord, and reached at the abode of Sri Sita in Ashok vatika.

She had fixed her eyes on her feet and mind was absorbed in the thoughts of lord Rama’s lotus feet.

Sri Hanuman ji felt so distress to see the miserable state of divine mother but remains conceal among the leaves of a tree mused with in self in wait of sun rise, by the Time Ravana reached there with his queen and others servants and try his level best to please sita ji but failed.

Ravana felt angered on heard to a glow worm for self and the great sun as legend for lord, monster drew out sword and wish to punish sita but her queen does not allow him to do so then he ordered his servant to create a scene for her so as to bring sita in a mode to accept his offer and then he left away for his palace.

Trichita was a made who was kept to serve Sri Sita ji, she ever treats sita ji as her own daughter, so was the version of Sri Sita ji for her as her mother. She disperses all the demons from there with the tale of her dream where Ravan faces defeat and vibhishan became the king of Lanka.

Sita ji was upset on the ultimatum of Ravana for a month till he waits for sita to accept him will otherwise kill her. it was really hard to wait for a month for death in painful condition .

sri Hanuman ji drop the ring brought for sita ji, sita ji collects that with strange and identify the ring as it belongs to lord rama only but was upset to visualize how it has reaches here, who has brought it, is it a part of illusion from demons or a bare true, then sri hanuman ji start narrating glory of lord Rama with all soft touch of devotion. Just by listening the same all the agonies of her heart washed away and she recalled who has bring this and singing a glories tale why cant be appear here on.

Sri Hanuman ji with both folded hands and due respect appeared with head bowed under the lotus feet of divine mother and narrates the story in depth. As she listen the affectionate words from hanuman ji her soul trusted him and recognized the servant of all merciful lord through thoughts words and deeds and ask him why merciful lord has become so harsh this time to rescue me from this damn demon. Has he ever have thoughts of me or forgotten me once for all. Why can’t you tell the truth about the mystery behind all sufferings?

Sri Hanuman ji addressed in all soft and polite accents: the lord and his younger brother are fine, mother, except for the fact that all merciful Lord is now sorrowful because of your sorrows. Please do not feel vexed at heart, mother, lord loves you twice as much as you love him. With tears in eyes emotionally sinked hanuman ji said Please listen the message of lord, mother,

every bit even the fresh and tender leaves of tree appears as if the tongues of fire,

night appeared as nights of final dissolution and

moon scorches like sun

Rich clouds shower boiling oil, fragrance breeze appeared as the very breath of serpent.

Agonies of one’s heart assuaged to some extent by speaking of it to some one true and close by but to who should I shear with, do not know. The feelings as such is known to my soul alone and that my very soul always abides with you, know it to be the essence of my feeling for you. While listening such delights sita ji absorbed in the faith of her soul, then hanuman ji said mother, the host of demons are like so many moths, while the shafts of lord are the flames. Have courage in your heart, mother and take demon as consumed.

Had the lord information about you, would have not tarried. Mother I would take you to him this very moment but have no such order from lord, I swear it. Sita ji put her doubt about the success of mission being demons are so powerful all the way and monkeys have their limitations then Sri Hanuman ji revealed his natural form,

Colossal as a mountain of gold,

Terrible in battle possessing great might and full of velour,

Now sita take comfort at heart. Hanuman ji said listen mother: monkeys possess no great strength or intelligence either but through lords might, the tiniest snake might swallow even bigger bird.

Now Sri Hanuman ji wish to communicate message to demon king through his own way and requested mother to go on for heaving fruits from trees near by, divine mother visualize the perfection of strength and wit said, go my son, enjoy fruits with your heart fixed to the lotus feet of lord.

Bowing his head he went forth; heaving eaten the fruits he began break down the trees as a signal to the kingdom. Many guards there were killed while resist the move, very son of Raven named Akhshaya kumara was too killed along with others. Message reaches to king ravana, he sent his most perfact son meghnath to deal with situation and bring the demon monkey live, wish to see him the courage he made from where.

During this operation Meghnath uses many delusive devices to win over when felt failed at heart uses Brahma Astra which was respected by sri hanuman ji though he was free from the fire of that very weapon through the bliss of his lord but he submit himself to Brahma astra, then taken by through meghnath to the assembly of Ravana where every one wish to have a look on the wild monkey.

Monster saw the monkey he laughed and railed at him, but when recalled his son’s death, felt sad at heart, ask Sri Hanuman ji why he has killed the demons & destructed the grooves, are you not scares of your life. From where you belong to, you look exceptionally bold wretch, who is your master, for what offence did you kill the demons? Hanuman ji said, listen O Raven those who attacked me I killed them only, in due course your son brings me up here, by a iota of whose might you were able to conquer the entire creation, both animate and inanimate, whose beloved spouse you have stolen, know me to be his envoy. I am aware of your glory on varying spheres of life which results embracement for you and again you are on a tough mode.

Raven I implore you with joined palm that give up your haughtiness and heed my advice. Adore him who dispels the fear of his devotees. Never antagonize him who is very source of terror even to the death, that devours all created beings, both animate and inanimate, gods as well demons and return Sri Sita ji at my request for your own welfare.

Lord is known for being slayer of khar is a protector of all suppliant and an ocean of compassion. Forgotten your offences he will give you shelter if you tern to him for protection.

Install the image of lotus feet of lord Rama in heart and enjoy the uninterrupted sovereignty of lanka. The glory of great sage pulast your grand father is shine like the full moon spotless all the way; be not a speck in that moon. I tell on oath: there no savior for those who is opposed to lord Rama

Abundant pride, which is the very root of dark alike ignorance and same, is a very source of pain in life and adore the lord Rama an ocean of compassion.

Sri hanuman ji give him salutary advice, full of devotion, dispassion, discretion and wisdom, the most haughty raven laughed and said we have find a wise monkey to advice us and order his men to kill monkey but in due course sri vibhishan entered and pursue for some other punishment for messenger of lord, then it was so decided that a monkey is very fond of his tail: let it to set on fire when this wrench go back to his master the way that and bring him here for his fate.

On hearing the words from raven all demons contribute for the cause to punish the monkey and bring whole sun oil and cloth to wrap on the tail of sri hanuman ji but hanuman ji by his mystic power enlarge his tail beyond their reach to treat the way that. It was great short fall in oil and cloth to wrap so and at last they set the fire and hanuman ji saw the fire blazing he immediately assumed an utterly diminutive size and slipped out of his bonds and at that moment impelled by god all the 49 types of winds come to rescue sri hanuman and assist him in his mission to drag the lanka in the ocean of fire.

Terrible flames burst out
Demons recalls for help all around
No one is there to listen them
Demons quotes it was not a monkey, must be a god in the form of monkey
Whole lanka is burning like an ocean of fire
This is the result of despising a noble soul
The city consumed to fire as if with out a master
In the twinkling if eyes hanuman ji burnt the whole lanka but the very houses of pious souls their in

Then jump in to the ocean and come out with all cool and have relaxed for a while, appears in front of Sri Sri Sita ji with joined palm request for to give some token such as lord given me. Sita ji unfasten the jewel on her head and given him and said o my son convey my obeisance to lord with these words that my lord is all sufficient; yet recalling of your vow of kindness to the afflicted. O my son repeat him about the episode of jayant & if the lord does not arrive here with in a month he will not find me alive. Reassuring Sri Sita ji he console in many ways, bowed his head at her lotus feet and set forth to meet lord Rama.

And Sri Hanuman ji reaches this side of sea and along with all team mates’ proceeds to the lotus feet of lord. Sugreev rejoiced to listen their coming back in happy mood and presume the job is so done. Sugreev meet with all joy and move along to the lotus feet of lord, when lord Rama saw the monkeys approaching with their mission duly accomplished, he was particularly delighted at heart. The all monkeys fell in the feet of lord; the all merciful lord embraced them all with affection and ask about their welfare.”

All is well with us now in your lotus feet, jamwant said_
O lord listen: he on you bestow your blessing is lucky ever and incessantly happy
God’s human being beings and sages are all kind to him
He alone is victorious modest and an ocean of virtues
Every thing termed out well by the grace of god
The achievements of Sri Hanuman is beyond the reach of words
All merciful lords felt delighted to listen so and ask hanuman about the sita ji that how she passes her days and sustain life

Sri Hanuman ji starts with_
Your very name keeps watch day and night
Her thoughts of you acts as pair of doors
She has her eyes fastened on her feet hence her life found no outlet to escape
Give me this jewel as token her devotion to your lotus feet
Lord took and presses it to his bosom

Sri Hanuman ji convey the message as sita ji said_
O lord I am devoted to your feet in thoughts words and deeds.
Yet for what offence my lord has forsaken me
I admit one fault of mine that I still survive even in disassociation from my lord
Perhaps is the fault of my eyes which never let me escape in view to have your sight at once

Sri Hanuman ji said, o my lord sita ji’s distress is great better not to describe it.

When blissful lord heard all about the agony of his great devotee, tears rushed to his lotus eyes. And he said to Sri Hanuman that do you think any one who depends on me in thought words and deeds can ever be dream of adversity.

Hanuman ji requested lord to over come the distress of divine mother sita ji.

Lord quotes said hanuman_
No one endowed with a body
A god human being or sage
Has put me under such an obligation, you have done
Even my mind shrinks to face you
How then I repay your obligation
Hence I conclude that the debts I own you can not be repaid
God gazed on hanuman his eyes filled with tears and
His body was overpowered with a thrill of emotion.

Then Sri Hanuman ji said, nothing is unattainable to him who enjoys your grace, therefore, be pleased my lord to grand me unceasing devotion, which is very source of supreme bliss.

Then lord Rama summoned sugreev and ask for preparations to march immediately.

Sugreev quickly summoned the mains of the various troops and they presented themselves in magnitude. All the force was unique and unequalled in strength. Lord rama starts his journey along with his strong army and auspicious modes roots again and again follow the rout of Lord Rama’s army and their sri sita experienced the very auspicious sign from self and the around the very mode of success all the way.

Continuing his march in this way the all merciful arrived at the sea shore and halted there. The host of valiant bears and monkeys began guttle fruits all around there.

Ever since Sri Hanuman ji left after burning down the lanka, demons lived in constant terror and feel no hope of demons race now if his messenger was mighty beyond words what happens when he himself enters the city. Mandodari, the wife of demon king Ravana have her own say to her spouse that sita must be return to lord Rama with all honor though some senior minister to make an escape from any unforeseen anymore but Raven never listen and ride on the mode of ego to pacify the issue to his queen but truth rises the way other that arrow’s of lord rama are like a swarm of serpents, while demons host can only be compare with frogs. Time quotes giving up obstinacy; devise some means of safety before serpents devour them.

Raven reaches at his assembly and ask advice on the issue concern but selfish minister’s quotes that my lord when no difficulty experienced in conquering the gods and demons, of what account can be men and monkeys. When a minister physician and religious preceptor, these three use pleasing words from fear or hope of reward, result is that dominion, health and faith goes down. The same has happened here with raven but on the scene vibhishan appears and try to convince his elder brother that those wish to attain the wisdom for here and here after must make a note on to it that be remains apart from malefic intentions on another’s wife. Lust anger vanity and covetousness are all paths leading to hell, abjuring, all these adore the lotus feet of lord Rama.

Lord Rama is not mare a human, he is_
Lord of the entire universe
Absolute Brahma
Free from malady of Maya {illusion}
Unborn god and all pervading
With out an beginning and the end
Ocean of compassion
Savior of Earth, cow, Brahman and gods
Delighted to his devotees
Break the rank of impious
Master of Vedas and true religion
Reliever of distress
Please restore sita to lord Rama and adore him for ultimate glory of life.
Again and again fall at the feet of his king brother and reveals about the bare facts open to him by great sage pulast. Ask his brother that perversity has obviously taken possession of your heart; that’s why you account your friends as foes and your enemies as friends. Sita is very night of destruction for demons race. Please grant this prayer as token of affection for me, restore sita to Sri Rama so that no harm may come to you. Vibhishan quotes all the virtues from the saints for the occasion but all gone in vain and faced the anguish of demon king raven, he kicked him out of the assembly. Here lies the greatness of saints, who return good for evil, vibhishan still wishes raven welfare all the way. Along with his ministers he departed through air.

As the saint departs from the assembly of demons, inauspicious modes arrives their in.
Disrespect to a saint immediately robes one of his blessings. Vibhishan heaving thoughts for his master in mind while on way to lord rama_
I am really blessed to the lotus feet of lord,
Janak’s daughter locked in her blossom
Whose very touch redeemed ahillya?
So delightful to devotees
Chased the cluster dear
Dwell as pair of lotuses in the lake of lord shiva
Hollowed the dandak forest

I will go today and behold with these eyes of mine those very feet in whose wooden sandals bharat’s mind remains absorbed. And reached this side of the ocean where lord Rama was there. When monkeys saw vibhishan think him to a spy of demon king raven, then realize about that he is brother of raven. Detain him out side and report to sugreev who then went to lord to seek permission from the lord about raven’s brother and suggest of his own to detain him for long as being a spy here but lord clarifies immediately that friend your thought is wise but

My vow is to dispel the fear from the mind of those who seek refuge in me.

Those peoples who forsake a suppliant apprehending evil from him are vile and sinful; their very sight is abominable.

I will never abandon even the murderer of myriads of Brahmins, if he seeks refuge in me.

The very moment creature tern its face towards me the sins incurred by it through millions of life are washed away.

A sinner by his very nature is averse to my worship.

Had vibhishan a wicked at heart, could ever dare to approach me.

That man alone who has a pure mind can attain to me; I have an aversion for duplicity, wiles and censoriousness.

Even if he is with in spy mind no matter; laxman alone can dispose all the demons of the world in a trice.

And if he has sought shelter with me out of fear, I will cherish him as my life.

Bring with all respect, angad and hanuman starts to bring him to lord. From the far sight vibhishan sighted lord rama with folded hands, and delighted his soul from the sight of all merciful and spoke gently O protector of gods my body has elements of tamas preponderating in it, I have natural affinity for sins even as owl is fond of darkness. Heaving heard with my own ears of your renown I have come to you with the belief that my lord dissipates the fear of rebirth, please save me the reliever of distress and delight of those who take refuge in you. When lord saw vibhishan falling prostate with these words he immediately started up much delighted. Lord rejoiced at heart and takes him in his long arms. He seated him by his side and spoke the words to dispel the fear of his devotees. Lord asks about his being well in lanka and said I know your ways correct to their modes. How he feels. Vibhishan said all is well with me now I have beheld your feet, you have shown mercy on me, recognize me as your servant. There can be no happiness for creature nor can it mind know any peace even in dream so long as it does not relinquish desire which is abode of sorrow and adore your lotus feet.

That villainous crew, greed infatuation jealousy arrogance and pride haunt mind till glory of lord dose not shine in the heart of one. Attachment to the ward is alike dark night at its full pace keeps its abode in heart till glory of lord doesn’t shine there.

I am blessed beyond measure, o gracious lord Rama, I have beheld with my own eyes the lotus feet which is worthy of adoration even to Brahma and lord Shiva.

Lord speaks on his very nature that if any one from creature seek refuge in me either of any factor, seeking my protection and discarding vanity, infatuation, hypocrisy and trickeries of various kinds, I speedily make him like a saint. Only saints of your type are dear to me; for the sake of none else do I body myself fourth.

Those men, who worship my personal form, are intent on doing good to others firmly thread the path of rightness and are steadfast in their vows and devoted to the feet of Brahmans dear to as life.

Listen of king of lanka; you possess all the above virtues; hence you are extremely dear to me.

Vibhishan said, my lord, ruler of whole creation protector of suppliant and knower of all hearts: I did have some lurking desire in my heart before; but the same has been washed way your mercy. Lord said, my friend you have no craving, my sight in this world never fails to bring its rewards. Lord has water from the sea and applied on the forehead the sacred mark of sovereignty. Vibhishan was consumed by the fire of raven’s wrath and lord Rama not only saved him bestowed on him unbroken sovereignty.

Lord asks vibhishan about the mode to cross over the ocean, vibhishan said; my lord, the deity presiding over the ocean is an ancestor of yours; he will think over the question and suggest some mean. His suggestion was welcomed by lord all the way but laxman ji have different opinion about the same. Lord went on to mode of prayer to have fruitful interaction with the deity of ocean, in the main time spies were on way to follow the track of vibhishan by assuming false appearance of monkeys they witnessed the all doings of lord, develops divine love for lord. During this chapter they missed their assumed form and got recognized by the monkeys, monkeys start beating up them but when they seek refuge from the lotus feet of lord laxman ji intervene and protect them and send back with the message for demon king raven.

On reaching there they narrates the every step story of compassionate feature of lord rama which irked raven, their onwards they reflects on the strength of lord’s army, each monkey is even more than that who come and burned the lanka earlier but ego of raven never wish to accept so. At last the sook request him to return the holy mother sita ji which proves raven to drag him out of assembly. With this insult sook changed his version and come to the lotus feet of lord as he was a sage in his past but with the curse of sage Agastya he had been transformed in to demon. He submit himself on the lotus feet of lord who purify him all well and reformed to a sage again, adoring sri Rama’s feet again and again the return to his hermitage.

Though three days had elapsed, the crass ocean would not answer the lord’s prayer, hence lord said, there can be no friendship with out inspiring fear; laxman bring my bows and arrows, I will dry up the ocean with a missile_
Supplication before an idiot
Friendship with a rough
Inculcating liberties on a born miser
Talking wisdom to one steeped in worldliness
Glorifying dispassion before a man of excessive greed
A lecture on the mind control to a irascible man
Discourse on the exploits of Sri Hari to a libidinous person is futile as sowing seeds in a barrel land.

When the god presiding over the ocean found the creatures burning, he gave up his pride and assumed the form of Brahman came with a gold plate filled with gems

“ though one may take infinite pains in watering a plantain it will not bear fruit unless it is hewed, similarly a vile fellow heeds no prayer but yields only when reprimands”


The god pressing over the ocean clasped the lord’s feet in dismay, my lord, and my entire fault. Ether, air fire water and earth are dull by nature it is cosmic nature which brought fourth for the purpose of creation under an impulse from you.

As per the version of scripture one would attain happiness in life only by remaining where he has been placed by the lord. I shall dry up and army will pass over but will not bring any credit to me. On hearing so lord ask any alternative to it with all smile he said my lord there are two monkeys in your army named nile and nala, got a boon from a sage in their childhood that whatever they touch even the huge mountains will not sink in water and float in ocean by your glory. In this way bridge the ocean, I will to help with my capacities and seek help from the lotus feet about his dreaded enemy on the north bank; lord immediately relived the agony of his heart. The god presiding over the ocean was rejoiced and gratified to the witness Sri Rama’s astounding might and velour. With bowing his head left for his home.

The story which wipes out the impurities of kali age has been sung by a great saint sri sri Tulsi dasa according to his version.

A recital of the virtues of Sri Rama bestows all blessings; those who reverently hear them cross over the ocean of mundane world with out any bark.

May lord bless all

Thanks Please
