strange phenomena

 Jai Sri Ram,

Kaikayi and Sumitra each gave birth to a lovely boy, the joy, grandeur, and solemnity of the occasion and the concourse of men was more than what Sarada and the serpent king describe, the city of Ayodhya wore a Galla appearance, it looked as if night had come to the see the lord and feeling abashed as it were at the sight of the sun, had deliberately stayed over in the twilight, clouds of insenses represented the dusk and handcuffs of red powder tossed up and wafted in the air represented the reddish light of sunset, 

The host of jewels that gleamed on housetops looked like so many stars while the round pinnacle on the top of the royal palace corresponds to the beautiful moon, the murmuring sound of the chanting of Vedas in the palace resembled the Chirping of birds appropriate to the occasion, gazed upon this spectacle the sun got himself, a whole month passed without his knowing it, the days passed  the length of a month and but no one could understand the mystery, the sun stood motionless with his chariot, how could there be any night, 

Nobody noticed the strange phenomena, the sun last moved ahead singing the praises of Sri Rama, as he went, witnessing the great festival of gods, sages and Nagas proceeded to their several abodes congratulating themselves of their good luck, I tell you one more convict act of mine, listen to it, for I know your steadfast faith, The sage Kakbhusandi and myself both were there together in human form without anyone knowing it, elated with supreme joy and the delight of love we roamed about the streets in ecstasy forgetting ourselves, he alone who enjoyed Sri Rama's grace could be apprised of this blessed adventure of ours. 

On that occasion king granted the desires of everyone's heart, in whatever manner one come he bestowed elephants chariots, horses, gold, cows, diamonds, and costumes of various kinds,  all were satisfied in their heart and invoked blessings here and there saying, May all the sons of Dasaratha live long those lord of Tulsidasa,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please
