Sri Vinaya Pathrika - Sri Tulasidas Maharaj – Sri Hanuman Sthuthi

 



Chapter – 16 – Sri Vinaya Patrika – Sri Hanuman Sthuthi


Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Pavanakumara, you are extremely valorous, you are beloved of Lord Rama, kindly do whatever you wish to do with me. Oh! Bhagavan, you can perform the most impossible tasks, your grace can make the life of the unfortunate Jeeva fruitful, Oh! Protector of the three worlds, why did you keep me afar from you and hurled me into utter darkness? How did you approve of me as a sincere attendant before and honored? Why did you abandon me now, what was the sin committed? You have approved me as your sincere devotee, and now you have deserted me. I have always been consuming pieces of meals received as alms, singing in praise of you. I have been living all my life in your faith, and I always dependent on you. How could you become so distant to me, like the ordinary humans? You are the knower of all, you know what’s happening with me, you are Gnaninam Agraganya/super intellectual, Oh! Bhagavan, I know very well that whoever untruthful to masters would lose self-respect as well as honor. The ignorant Jeeva constantly chases after the material matters, possession, wealth, richness, money, fame, children, wife, relatives, and companion, due to Mahamoha/illusion, ignorance, ultimately forgets the Paramathma Parambhramam resides as a soul in it and undergoes constant sufferings and grief of worldly existence. You are a sincere attendant of Lord Rama and Devi Janaki, I am Tulasidas despairingly wandering through the worldly existence, you are my safest asylum, hence kindly guide me to reach  the lotus feet of Lord Raghunatha.”

 

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj continues “Oh! Hanuman, do not take seriously the saying of a tormented, selfish, distressed, and depressed Jeeva, these are extremely perplexed, and do not think good or bad of their words. It is evident in the Samsara that, the heavy downpour and the lack of downpour, both would stir intense trepidations among the Jeeva, eventually they curse the deities in either way. The truth is the supreme Lord Parameshwara did not take the curses of Jeeva seriously. Oh! Bhagavan, I have openly accused you because of intense trepidation and sufferings of worldly existence in the Kali era, kindly shower your mercy and compassionate grace upon me, and forgive me. The innocent Jeeva remembers only noble souls, well-wisher, promising people during the hours of extreme difficulties, they can only protect by all means during the time of troubles. Oh! Bhagavan, the Masters must be kind enough to point out the mistakes in attendants and guide them, I am Tulsidas is a firm and sincere devotee of you, and have already taken shelter at your lotus feet.”

Sri Vinaya Pathrika - Sri Tulasidas Maharaj – Sri Hanuman Sthuthi

 



Chapter – 15 – Sri Vinaya Patrika – Sri Hanuman Sthuthi


Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Whoever achieved the perpetual grace of Lord Hanuman who is Kesari Nandhan, would get protected from all the troubles and afflictions. Who is powerful than the supreme Lord Hanuman who showers bliss to his devotees, destroyer of enemies, and break the faces of wicked, in this world? The Veda and Purana eulogizes the glories of Hanuman. He is the Shiromani/precious jewel adorned on the crown and hair, among the valorous. He restored the lost kingdom and glories of Vibheeshana and Sugreevah. He has overthrown the mighty King Ravana and Bali from the throne, he fulfilled the desires of the deities, protected himself from all the traps of Ravana, he crossed the mighty ocean and set fire to the city of Lanka. He crushed the haughty demons under his feet. His childhood pranks terrify Lord Surya in the early hours of dawn. The illustrious Kings seek the grace and bow their heads before Lord Hanuman, for the victory on the battlefields. He is fearless and wins over enemies, whoever worships him would achieve all the auspiciousness, welfare, and ultimately Moksha. He resembles Chakora bird that yearningly looks at the full-moon like the face of Lord Sri Ramachandra, the remembrance of Lord Hanuman and recitation of his sacred names would give the results of auspicious wish-fulfilling tree Kalpavruksha to his devotees. Oh! Tulsidas, the worship of Lord Hanuman and intense devotion and faith at the lotus feet of Hanuman would bring back the lost glories and welfare. Whoever sings in praise of Lord Hanuman would achieve the Purusharththa/Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha, these four would be on the palm of the devotees who have intense faith and devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Hanuman.”

 

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj continues “Oh! Hanuman who destroys the sufferings of the Jeeva, you are the sincere attendant of Lord Rama, Oh! Bhagavan, haven’t seen the Simharoopi/lion cubs attacked by the evil effects of Kaliyuga like untamed elephants? Don’t you remember that you are Sharanagathavthsala of the Jeeva? You are the protector of your sincere devotees, you are kind and compassionate to your devotees, have you forgotten all those virtues? Where is your valor that terrified each and every limb of Ravana with the sounds of your Humkara/boisterous sound of 'Hum'? Where is that prowess that frightened your enemies? Have you become arrogant? Have you forgotten your kindness and compassion to your devotees? Today your sincere attendant is getting thrashed and humiliated before your eyes, kindly protects them. Oh! Bhagavan, you are extremely skilled and shrewd as well. Previously, you have considered your sincere attendants as your life, you have listened to them you have given importance to them, what happened to you now? Oh! Bhagavan, after watching the sufferings of worldly existence of Tulsidas, why so remote to me? kindly take all the fame to you, there is no doubt that the ardent devotees of Lord Rama would attain all kinds of auspiciousness in their lives.”

Sri Vinaya Pathrika - Sri Tulasidas Maharaj – Chithrakoot Sthuthi/The beautiful forest of Chitrakoot

 



Chapter – 11 – Sri Vinaya Pathrika – Chithrakoot Sthuthi/ The beautiful forest of Chithrakoot

 

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “The glorious land Chithrakoot removes all the miseries and sorrows of the Jeeva, it is an auspicious dense forest remove the sufferings of worldly existence, and evil effects of Kali era. This sacred land is full of numerous trees, herbs, and creepers that give out the stunning view, the river Mandakini protects the lush green land with her sacred watercourse. The river Mandakini removes the grave sins of the Jeeva whoever takes a dip in it. The beautiful rich landscape, the pack of tall trees with green leaves, the cool breeze carries the rich fragrances of the sandalwood trees,  is the abode of beauty and serenity, and it is the dwelling place of Munigana who represents birds/ parrot, cuckoo, peacock. The Sadhana/various austerities of these Muniganas represent the flowers of rich fragrances which provides Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha like succulent fruits. The shadow of these tall and beautiful trees removes the scorching heat like the sufferings and sorrows of the worldly existence and provides shelter to those Munigans who have taken shelter underneath it. Janakinath Sri Rama ensures that those tall trees protect these Sadhakas who are constantly engaged in austerities and Tapasya, achieves the fruit of it. The Sadhakaroopi Shreshta Muniganas immensely praises their fortune to achieve the shadow of these tall trees and lives in complete serenity and contentment. The shadow of these trees resembles Mayarahitha/free from illusion, Vasanarahitha/free from attributes of Sathvik, Rajasik and Thamasik, Kala/time and Karmarahith/deeds. Whoever takes shelter in the glorious forest of Trikoota which protects by Kripalu Rama, Devi Sita, and Lakshman, would get relieved from the illusion/Maya, body and I consciousness, impurities of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya, interest in worldly matters and bondage.” Oh! Tulsidas, if you want to achieve intense faith and devotion at the lotus feet of  Srirama, then take shelter in the Chitrakoot Parvath, and undertake strict austerities.

 


Sri Tulsidas Maharaj continues “Oh! Mind, do not waste your time, go to Chitrakoot, the evilness of the Kali era has destroyed the Dharma, devotion, and faith, and shut all the gateways to achieve auspiciousness. The desire/ Moha, Maya/illusion, and Papa/sin are rapidly increasing, Oh! Mind, you take shelter on the sacred land Chithrakoot where the footprints of Rama imprinted on it, the compassionate Lord has taken several expeditions through this land, and this land is free from Dhambha/pride, Kapata/lies, Pankhada/ignorance, it would destroy all the wickedness in the Jeeva the moment you take notice of the tall trees and peaks, it would liberate the Jeeva from the vicious cycles of death and birth as well. This is the land where Jagathpathi Jagadheeshwar Bhrama,  Vishnu , and Shiva took birth as the son of Devi Anasuya and Sage Atri. The hermitages of this Chithrakoot removed the grief in Yudhishtira who was defeated in the board game by wicked Kauravas, the Pandavas visited this sacred land during their exile and got relieved from their grief, and the King Nala took expedition on this land and got freed from anguish. Oh! Mind, do not make any delay to visit Chitrakoot, you have already wasted several years sleeping, and there is little time to make it. The Ayu is very short and unpredictable, each second are precious, remember the death is nearer, hence rush to the sacred land Chithrakoot,  and undertake Ramanama Japa, which is highly propitious. Lord Shiva achieved immortality with the Ramanama Japa, hence remain untainted even after consuming the deadly poison of Kalakoota. Oh! Mind, go to Chitrakoot, undertake austerities, Ramanama Japa, Yajja, take a dip in the holy river Mandakini/Payasvini, quench your thirst with the waters of Payasvini, thereby achieve the grace of Lord Rama, and Purusharththa/Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha as well.

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “The more and more watercourses of Yamuna move forward, the Punyaroopi warriors set forward to fight against the Kaliyugaroopi King of evilness. During the seasons of heavy downpour, the Punyaroopi waters of Yamuna gushes towards the emissaries of Yama and taint their face with her black colors of waters, so that they refrain from the mission to torture the Jeeva, these emissaries get scared of the Punyaroopi waters and set back footed and gets puzzled whom to take to the abode of Yama?

It is the treasure house of auspiciousness, it removes the Santhapa/afflictions, Papa/sins, Shoka/grief, and all kinds of ailments.

His lotus feet are worshiped by Siddha, Sanaka, Sanandhan, Sanathan, Sanathkumara, Yogiraj, Devatha, Vishnu, and Bhrama. I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Shiva who is fond of twice-born who sincerely follow the Varnna and Ashrama Dharma. He is easily attainable to the pious and noble-souls, and extremely difficult for the wicked people. His appearance is Vikaral/unique, he is all-pervasive, he is beyond Veda, Shastra, Purana, and Ithihasa. He is the storehouse of mercy, he is adorned in serpents as ornaments, sacred river Ganga on matted hair locks, he is pure and free from impurities of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya, he is dispassionate and beyond Triguna. He is the Lord of the Universe, he is the destroyer of sins and illnesses, he is Trishuladhari who is the destroyer of Maha Moha Andhakara, like the Surya spread its radiance to remove the darkness. He is Mahakala who is the Lord of Kala, he is beyond time and death, he is immortal, he protects the Jeeva from the vicious cycles of repeated births. He resembles colossal fire that destroys the dense wood like the evil effects of the Kali era. I shall surrender at the lotus feet of supreme Lord Mahadeva who represent Sage Agasthya, Sarvantharyami/resides as a soul in the Jeeva, symbolizes auspiciousness and kindness, destroys the repeated births of the Jeeva who have taken shelter at his lotus feet and provider of perpetual happiness to them.”

He is Lord of Kashi/Kashinath is extremely compassionate to Jeeva who is unfortunate has no line of auspiciousness on his forehead would achieve Paramagathi with the grace of that supreme Lord in Kashi.

The Athmajjana/knowledge of self’/ Paramatha Thaththva is impossible to achieve without the grace of supreme Lord Mahadeva, even if you achieve to perform various Yoga and Yaga for several Kalpa. Oh! Parvathi Ramana, you are the only one who can remove the fear and anxieties in me.” Sri Tulsidas Maharaj says, Lord Mahadeva, Parvathi Ramana is the abode of Gnana Vijjana.

Bhagavan, you take great pleasure in conducting expeditions with Devi Parvathi, and your supreme abode is Parvatharaj Mount Kailash. You are adorned in marvelous ear ornaments that spread brilliant radiance all around the neck areas, and enhances the beauty of your lotus face. You are holding a protective shield and sword, and Trident, holds Damaru, Bana and Dhanush. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the ocean of mercy, your celestial vehicle is bull, you are extremely compassionate, you have become too concerned watching the deities and demons who were tormented by the heat of Halahal poison emerged out of the ocean, while churning for the nectar of immortality, soon you have swallowed the deadly poison and protected the Universe. Oh! Bhagavan, you have smeared in sacred ashes all over the body, Oh! Bhasmabhooshana, you have adorned the serpent and Mundamala on the chest. You are the destroyer of the evilness of the Dakini, Shakini, Khechara/spirits from the sky, Bhoochara/ghosts on the Earth, Yanthrini and Manthrini, etc. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the destroyer of sins in seconds. You are Mahakala, you are the Garuda to the Kalikalaroopi Sarpa/destroyer of the evil effects of the Kali era, you are the destroyer of the demons of Tripura, and many wicked Dhaithyas, you perform the most impossible tasks, Oh! Bhagavan, at the end of Mahapralaya, you destroy the entire Universe with the tip of your trident and perform a fierce cosmic dance. Oh! Bhagavan, I am completely worn out, wandering through the eighty-four lakh Yoni/repeated births as birds, worms, reptiles, animals, humans, etc. in the dreadful Samsara which is full of miseries and sorrows, and continuously hurling myself into the vicious cycles of repeated births. Oh! Bhagavan, I am helpless, no one to protect me. Oh! Bhairavaroopa, Oh! Ramarooopi Rudra, you are my Bandhu/relative, Guru/preceptor, Pitha/father, Matha/mother and Vidhatha/creator, kindly protect me.” Santh Tulsidas says the supreme Lord Mahadeva whose endless virtues are sung by Devi Saraswathi, the Goddess of wisdom, and  the Veda, Maharishi Narada,  Bharamajjani Shesha, always eulogizes the glories of that supreme Lord Shiva who is Sarveshwara resides in the Anandhavan/Kashi, and is the safest asylum to the worshiper who has taken shelter in him.

Chapter – 4– Sri Vinaya Patrika – Prayer to Lord Shambhu for intense devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra

 

Sri Tulasidas Maharaj speaks “ Oh! Deva, you are the destroyer of darkness of Moha/desires, and ignorance, Oh! Hara, you symbolize the sun that spread brilliance and remove the darkness Oh! Rudra, Oh! Sharenya, Oh! Lokabhirama, who adorned in Balachandra/crescent moon on the matted hair locks, your eyes resemble the lotus flower petals, you excel the loveliness of hundred crores of Manmatha, you are the storehouse of virtues and charm, kindly destroy my sorrows of worldly existence. Oh! Bhagavan, your loveliness resembles Shankha, Kundhapushpa, Chandhrama, and camphor. Oh! Bhagavan, the brilliance of your body has the resemblance of crores of Madhyahna Surya, you are adorned in sacred ashes all over the body. Oh! Bhagavan, you have allocated half of your body to Himachala Kanya Goddess Parvathi, you have beautiful brownish-red matted hair lock, your chest is adorned in serpent and Mundamala are garland, your matted hair lock is the dwelling place of sacred Ganga who descend from the lotus feet of Lord Hari, you have adorned in marvelous ear ornaments, the Halahal poison on the bluish-throat enhances the beauty of your neck area, Oh Karunakandha Sacchidhanandhaswaroopa, Oh! Avadhootha Vesha Bhagavan, I shall repeatedly prostrate before you. Oh! Bhagavan, you hold the weapon, trident, sword, bow, and arrows, you are that colossal fire that burns down the dense wood-like enemies. Your celestial vehicle is bull, you are attired in the skin of animals/leopard, elephant, you symbolize Vignan, you are worshiped by Siddha, Deva, Muni, and Manushya. Oh! Bhagavan, your well known Thandavanriththya/cosmic dance, reverberating noise of the Damaru though it gives out an inauspicious appearance, it is highly propitious. Oh!         Bhagavan, you burn down the whole Bhramanda during the Mahapralaya, the sacred land Kashi is your permanent dwelling place and the Kailash is your supreme abode. Oh! Bhagavan you have profound knowledge in all the philosophies, Oh! Sarvajja, you are the Lord of Yajja, Oh! Vibhu, you are all-pervasive Bhramam, Oh! Purari, the Universe, and it's living and non-living things initiated from you. You are changeless and eternal, the deities, Bhrama, Indra, Chandra, Surya,  Varuna, Agni, Ashtavasu, Maruthganas, and Yama worship you and have attained the prowess from you. Oh! Bhagavan, you are beyond time, independent, Nirguna, Nirlepa, Paramathma Parambhrama, you have neither birth nor death. Oh! Bhagavan, you symbolize the Universe, though you have Ugraroopa/fierce, you are always compassionate and benevolent. You are Lord of Lords, you are all-pervasive supreme Bhramam, you are the destroyer of the sins and provider of auspiciousness as well. Oh! Bhagavan, whoever worships you would achieve Gnana, Vairagya, Dhana, Dharma, Kaivalyasukha, Sundharatha, Saubhagya, effortlessly, after all these the ignorant Jeeva keep away from the worship of your lotus feet and chases after material welfare and pleasure fleet to different directions, undergoes constant miseries and sorrows. Oh! Shambho, Oh! Kamari, I am ignorant and wicked, completely drenched in worldly matters and bondage, exhausted and distressed, I am Tulasi Das taking shelter at your lotus feet, kindly shower perpetual devotion at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra so that I can save myself from the Mayaroopi worldly existence.”
