Prompted Sati to lie

Jai Sri Ram,
What you said cannot be untrue,

I am fully convinced in my heart,

Lord Shankara then looked within by contemplation and came to know all that Sati had done,

Again he bowed his head against the delusive power of Sri Rama that had prompted Sati to lie,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Hare Rama

Jai Sri Ram,
Having realized the greatness of the Hero of Raghu's Race,

Sati in her Awe concealed the truth from Shiva,

Smilingly inquired

Jai sri Ram,
Repeatedly bowing Her Head at the feet of Sri Rama,

Tell me now the whole truth, how did you test sri Rama,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Sat down on the wayside

Jai Sri Ram,
Her heart quivered and she lost all consciousness of her body,

Closing her eyes she sat down on the wayside,

When she opened her eyes and gazed once more,

The daughter of Daksa saw nothing there,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please

Most terrible

Jai Sri Ram,
Sati was much dejected at heart,

I heeded not the word of Sankara and imposed my own ignorance on Rama,

What reply shall I give to my lord now,

The agony of her heart was most terrible,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Sati was struck with great awe,

Jai Sri Ram,
But while the gods who adored the lord appeared in diverse garbs,

The appearance of Sri Rama was the same in every case,

Though she saw many Rama with as many Sitas, their garb did not vary,

Seeing the Same Rama, Same Laxmana, and the Same Sita, Sati was struck with great awe,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

Each separate vision of Rama

Jai Sri Ram,
She further perceived innumerable Satis, consort of Lord Shiva

Perceived consort of Brahma and Vishnu, all peerless in beauty,

They confirmed in their appearance to the garb in which Brahma and the other gods appeared,

Each separate vision of Rama was attended by a whole host of gods with their feminine counterparts, as well as by the whole animate and inanimate,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

Different Garbs

Jai Sri Ram,
Sati saw more than one sets of Shiva, Brahma, and Vishnu,

And, awaiting upon him in their different garbs,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks, please 

Enthroned

Jai Sri Ram,
Sri Rama was going ahead of her along with his consort, Sri Sita ji, and his younger brother Laxmana,

She Looked Back_and

Strange Phenomena

I imposed my own ignorance on Rama,

What reply shall i give to my Lord Now,

May Lord Bless all

Thanks please 

Significant words of Rama

Jai sri Ram,
Joining the palms of his hands, he first made obeisance to her mentioning His Name along with his father's,

He then asked her the whereabouts of the Lord Shiva,

Who has bull emblazoned on his standard and wondered what makes her roam  about all alone in the forest,

Sati felt very uncomfortable when she heard these soft yet significant words of Rama,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please  

Nature of Woman

Jai Sri Ram,
Sati sought to practise deception on him,

Se how deep routed is the nature of a woman is,

Extolling in heart the potency of his Maya,

False appearance

Astonished and puzzled

Jai Sri Ram,

He was astonished and much puzzled,

He was tongue tied and looked very grave,

The sagacious brother was acquainted with the Lord's glory,

May Lord Bless all, 

Assumed the form of Sita

Jai Sri Ram,
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 to the spot where the all blissful Lord Sri Rama was,

After Many an anxious thought Sati Assumed the form of Sita and moved ahead on the same rout along which the ruler of men Sri Rama was passing,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Her Doubt

Jai sri Ram,
When her doubt did not yield even to my assurances,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please  

She racked her brain

Jai Sri Ram,
Thus obtaining leave of Shiva,

Sati Proceeded on her mission,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Critical Judgement

Jai Sri Ram,
If you have a grave doubt in your mind,

Why not go and verify the thing,

Sri Vyas Puja

It rubs the dirt off the beautiful mirror in the shape of the devotee's heart, when applied to the forehead in the form of Tilaka, a religious mark,

On the auspicious occasion of Sri Sri Vyas Puja, i make very humble obeisance in the lotus feet of Sri Rama, the Lord of this Universe and a tangible help to meek and the weak,
