Extolled the Virtues of sri Rama

Jai sri Ram,

Here he instructed the sages in wisdom and there he extolled the virtue of Sri Rama,

So absorbed

Jai Sri Ram,
Her delicate frame was little fit for austerities,

Sambhu is all powerful by Nature

Sambhu is all powerful by Nature,

For he is no other than God himself,

Holy men never drink wine

Jai Sri Ram,
If in their pride of wisdom foolish men emulate the great,

They are cast into hell for a whole Kalpa or life time of the universe,

Can an embodied soul vie with God.

Holy men would never drink wine even if they come to know that it had been made of water from Ganga, but the same wine becomes pure when it is poured into Ganga,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

Sun and the Fire

Jai Sri Ram,
Even so the sun and the fire absorb moisture in all forms,

But no one can call them names

Again water of every description, pure as well as impure,

Flows into the Ganga, yet no one calls the heavenly stream impure, the mighty incur no blame,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please  

Hare Rama

Jai Sri Ram,
If her Marriage take place with Sankara,

Everyone will call the demerits as good as virtues,

Even though Sri Hari uses the serpents gods Sesa as his couch and sleeps thereon,

The wise do not blame him for the same,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

one remedy

Jai Sri Ram,
Nevertheless i tell you one remedy,

This may avail if heaven helps you,

But whatever demerits i have shown in her bridegroom exist in Shiva, so far i can guess,

May lord bless all,

Thanks please

Decreed by the fate no one can undo,

Jai Sri Ram,
The prediction of the saint cannot be false, the thought Made Himavan and his wife as well as the senior playmates anxious,

Sage Narada replied, Hear, o Himvan, whatever has been decreed by fate no one can undo---not even gods, demons, human beings, nagas or sages,

May Lord Bless all,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

she concealed her emotions

Jai Sri Ram,
Love for the lotus feet of Lord Shiva sprouted in her heart,

She, however, felt difficult in her mind,

Finding the time inopportune for its disclosure, she concealed her emotions and then sat down in the lap of one of her playmates,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Uma cherish them in her heart

Jai Sri Ram,
Girija and all other playmates, Himalaya and his wife, Mena,

All had their standing on their end and their eyes were full of tears,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Their feeling was different

Jai Sri Ram,
Hearing the words of the sage and believing them to be true,

Himalaya and his wife became disconsolate,

While Uma felt delighted, even Narada could not perceive this difference 

Even though their other expressions were the same, their feeling was different,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Stark Naked

Jai Sri Ram,
Your Daughter, O Himalaya, is endowed with auspicious marks,

Hear now the few drawbacks she possesses,

Devoid of merits, free from pride, without father or mother, unconcerned and free from doubts,

An ascetic with matted hair and a heart devoid of longing, stark naked and with hideous accouterments, such a one shall be her lord, as i can read from the lines on her palm,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

path of fidelity

Jai sri Ram,
She shall ever united with her Lord and bring glory to her Parents,

She shall command the respect of the whole universe,

He who waits upon her shall lack nothing,

May lord bless all,

Thanks please 

Win the love of her husband

Jai Sri Ram,
The sage smilingly replied in the following soft yet significant words,

Your daughter is a mine of all virtues, pretty, amiable and intelligent by Nature,

She will be called Uma, Ambica and Bhavani,

Adorned with all traits, the girl shall win the love of her husband,

May Lord Bless all

Thanks please

What is good what is bad

Jai Sri Ram,
Himachal extolled his own good luck,

Summoning his daughter, placed her at the sage's feet,

You Know Everything, including the past, present and future, and have access everywhere,

O Good Sage, tell me what is good and what is bad about my daughter after a mature consideration,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please

Narada

Jai Sri Ram,
Receiving all the news Narada eagerly went to the house of Himachal,

The King of mountain that presiding deity of the Himalaya, received him with great honor,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Himalaya

Jai Sri Baba Lal ji,
With the advent of Girija as synonym of Parvati,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Loved one another

Jai sri Ram,
Ever since Uma born in the house of Himalaya the mount become an abode of all blessings and prosperity,

Sages built beautiful hermitages here and there and Himalaya assigned them suitable abodes,

Young trees of different varieties were endowed with never failing blossoms and fruits, and mines of jewel of various kinds appeared on the beautiful mountain,

All rivers bore holy waters, beast and bees, all rejoiced, all animals gave up their natural antipathies and all those dwelt on the mountain loved one another,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Himalaya

Jai Sri Ram,
The story is known throughout the world,

That is why i have told it in brief,

While dying, Sati asked a boon of sri Hari that she might remain devoted to the feet of Shiva in all successive births,

That is why she was reborn as Parvati, the daughter of Mountain Himalaya, in the house of Himachal, the only pleading over the Himalaya mountain,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

He Sent Virabhadra

Jai Sri Ganesha,
Shankara got all the news and in his wrath He sent Virabhadra,

Going there the latter made havoc of the sacrifice,

And requited all the gods according to their desert,

As is well known to the world, Daksha met the fate which an opponent of Shambhu generally meet,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please

Plaintive cry

Jai Sri Ram,
A plaintive cry rose from the whole assembly,

Hearing of Sati's death.

The Attendants of Shambhu began to destroy the sacrifice,

Seeing the sacrifice being destroyed, the great sage Braghu protected it,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please 

Fire of Yoga

Jai Sri  Ram,
And This Body of mine has sprung from the loins of Daksha,

Therefore, installing in my heart Lord Shiva,

Who bears the moon on his forehead and a bull as his emblem,

I shall immediately quit the body, as she spoke thus she burnt her body with the fire of Yoga,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Universal Spirit,

Jai sri Ram,
Whatever you hear a saint, Sambhu or Vishnu that lord of Laxmi vilified,

The rule is that if it lies within your power, you should tear out the tongue of the reviler or you should run away closing your ears,

The Slayer of Tripura, The great Shiva, is Universal Spirit,

He is the father of the universe and is beneficent to all, it is him my stupid father vilifies,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please

shall fully repent

Jai Sri Ram,
Then she Sharply re-approaching the whole assembly,

She spoke in angry accents,

Hear ye elders of the assembly and great sages,

All of you who have reviled Sankara or heard him reviled must forthwith reap the fruit of your sin and my father too shall fully repent,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

tries to pacify her

Jai sri Ram,
The thought of the same made Sati furious,

Her Mother tries to pacify her in many ways,

The insult to Shiva was something unbearable,

Her heart could not, therefore, be pacified,

May lord Bless all,

Thanks please 

Most painful

Jai sri Ram,
Then did she realize the force of Sankara's warning,

Her heart burnt within her at the thought of the insult offered to her lord,

The former grief that of repudiation by her lord did not torment her heart so much as the great agony she now felt, as result of the insult offered to her husband,

Although there are terrible agonies of various kinds in this world, the insult offered to one's own people is the most painful of them all,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks please
