Ravana

 Jai Sri Ram,

As was the case of Kaalnemi, Ravana and Rahu,

The good are honored notwithstanding their mean appearance,

Even as Jambvaan, Ravana and Rahu, and Hanuman, 

Won honor in this world,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

 

Imposters

 Jai Sri Ram,

Even those who are imposters are respected on account of their garb,

As the world is taken in by their attractive appearance, 

But they are eventually exposed, 

And cannot keep up their false appearance till the end, 

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

When

 Jai Sri Ram,

When providence blesses one with such discrimination as is possessed by the swan, 

Then alone the mind abandon evil and gets enamored of goodness by force of the spirit of the times, 

Old habits and the past karma even the good deviate from goodness under the influence of Maya,

By just as servants of Sri Hari rectify the error and eradicate sorrow and weakness, being untarnished glory to them, even so, the wicked occasionally perform a noble deed due to their good association, though their evil nature, which is unchangeable, cannot be obliterated,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

When

 Jai Sri Ram,

God has created the universe consisting of animate and inanimate beings,

As partaking of both good and evil,

Swans, in the form of saints, imbibe the milk of goodness rejecting water in the form of evil,

When providence blesses one with such discrimination then alone does the mind abandon evil and get enamored of goodness rejecting water in the form of evil,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

Pairs

 Jai Sri Ram,

It is characterized by pairs of opposites such as pain and pleasure, sin and merits, 

Day and night, the good and the wicked, good birth and vile birth, demons, and gods, high and the low, nectar and the poison, happy life and life of a curse,

 Maya and the Brahma, Matter, and spirit, God and Jivatman, plenty and poverty, pauper and the king, Kasi and the Magadh, Ganga, and Karmanasa, 

Desert and the rich soil, heaven and hell attachments and dispassion, good and evil,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

Good and evil

 Jai Sri Ram,

The good as well as the vile, all have been brought into being by the creator, 

It is Vedas that have differentiated them by reckoning the merits of the former class,

And demerits of the other,

The Vedas and Itihasa and Puranas unanimously declared that the creation of Brahma is an intermixture of good and evil,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please 

The tales

 Jai Sri Ram,

The tales of sins and vices of the wicked, 

On the one hand and on the virtues of the virtuous, on the other, are alike boundless and unfathomable oceans,

That is why I have enumerated only a few virtues and vices,

For they cannot be acquired or discarded without being duly distinguished,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
