Jai Sri Ram,
Rama is infinite, infinite are his virtues,The dimensions of his story are also immeasurable,
Those whose thoughts are pure will, thereupon, feel no surprise when they hear it, With humble supplication to all, proceed to recount the virtues of Rama, I commenced this story in the Samvat year 1631 that 1575 AD, on Tuesday, the ninth of lunar month Chaitra, story shed its luster in Ayodhya, on Rama's birth, infinite sagacious souls and gods come and pay their homage to Rama, and celebrate the Birthday festival, numerous pious men take dip in the holy water of Celestial Sarayu, muttering the name of Sri Rama,
The Very sight and touch of the Sarayu, a dip into its water or a draught from the cleanses one's sins, The beautiful town of Ayodhya grants an abode in sri Rama's heaven, it is celebrated through all the worlds belonging to the four species,
That Viviparous, oviparous, sweat born and those shooting from the earth, who so ever shed their mortal coil in Ayodhya are never born again, Knowing the town to be charming in everyway, a bestower of all forms of success and storehouse of blessings, I commenced writing this sacred story there, the impulses of lust, arrogance and hypocrisy positively disappears from the mind of those who hear it,
Jai Siya Ram,
