Rama is beneficent to all

 Jai Sri Ram,

The Hero of Raghu's clan, on the hand, honored them both at his meeting with Bharata and commended them in open court,

While the Lord sat at the foot of the tree, the monkeys perched themselves high on the boughs,

There is no lord as generous as Sri Rama, Sri Rama is beneficent to all, and is the fact, 

May Lord bless all,

For instance

 Jai Sri Ram,

The Lord Never cherishes in his mind the lapse,

If any, on part of a devotee, while he remembers the letters spirit a hundred times,

Vibhishan was guilty of the same offense, but Sri Rama took no cognizance of it even in a dream,

May Lord bless all,

My presumption and error

 Jai Sri Ram,

Everybody calls me a servant of the Lord and I myself claim to be one,

And Sri Rama puts up with the scoffing remark that a master like Sita's Lord has a servant like Tulsidas,

My presumption and error are indeed very great and hearing the tale of my sins even hell has turned up its nose at them,

I shudder to think of it due to my assumed fears, while Sri Rama took no notice of them even in a dream,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks, please

Sri Ekadasi today

Adoration of the day annihilates the accumulating impurities and imparts the fresh fragrance of purity to the soul,

Diet regulations are there but the man may accommodate with the truth and cause of individual, spirit of service in truth with submission matters the most,

Simplicity that above the horizon of the mimic show is the chapters concern with adoration and undue exhibition of the practice may derail the truth of adoration, better be placed suitable to invoke self to capitalize the opportunity,

That Love

 Jai Sri Ram,

The verdict of the Vedas and Puranas as well as of saints is just this,

That love of Rama or the name Rama is the reward of all virtuous acts, 

In the first age contemplation, in the second age sacrifice, in dwaper are the lord is propitiated through worship,

This Kali age, however, is simply corrupt and the root of all impurities, where the mind of man wallows like a fish in the ocean of sin, in this terrible age the name alone is a wish-yielding tree,

Though both are inaccessible by themselves, they are easily attainable through the name,

Therefore I have called the name greater than Brahma and Sri Rama both, Brahma is one, all-pervading and imperishable, he is all truth, consciousness, and a compact mass of joy,
