Chapter
– 7 – Sri Vinaya Pathrika – Prayer
to Lord Mahadeva & Goddess Bhavani
Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Umakantha,
you have created a beautiful forest, Devi Parvathi who is your Ardhangini incarnated
as Vasantharithu in the forest to have a glimpse of you. Oh! Bhagavan, the luster of your attractive body resembles the garland of Champapusha, and your
bluish throat has the appearance of Thamalapathra, the beautiful Jangha/thigh
has the appearance of plantain Vruksha, and the feet has the luster of a red
lotus flower, the great physique resembles a lion, and your majestic movements
resembles a swan. Oh! Bhagavan, you have adorned in exquisite ornaments and
flowers, the magnificent Noopura and Kinkini make jingling noises resemble the sounds of birds. You have attractive
shoulders, arms, and chest, you have wide and beautiful eyes that resemble a blue
lotus, are decorated in black ink. You have a pleasant lotus-like face, and an attractive smile, the melodious speeches resemble cuckoo, and the sparkling beautiful
line of teeth resembles white flowers. Oh! Bhagavan, you are wisdom
personified, I am tormented by the cupid arrows of Kamadeva, kindly destroy the
interest in worldly matters, impurities, lust, and desires in me, so that I
could witness the perpetual presence of Sukhaswaroopa Sacchidhanandha Paramathma
Lord Sri Rama in my heart.”
Devi Sthuthi –
Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Devi, you
are the destroyer of grief, agonies, and sins, kindly shower your kindness upon
me. You are the root of the Bhramanda, you are the creator of all the living
and non-living things, you are most promising to your devotees, holds powerful
trident to destroy the enemies, and you are that Avyakritha Prakrithi who is
inseparable from the indestructible Purusha. Oh! Devi, your attractive limbs
resemble lightning, you are attired in majestic garments, and adorned in
exquisite ornaments. Your attractive dark blue eyes resemble the antelope, you
have a beautiful lustrous face that resembles the full moon, and you excel the beauty of the crores of Devi Rathi and Kamadeva. Oh! Devi, your virtues, loveliness, are
beyond words, you are dreadful to wicked enemies and highly propitious and
benevolent to noble. Oh! Jagathjanani, you are Lakshmi who symbolizes wealth, you
are Saraswathi who symbolizes wisdom and knowledge, and You are Parvathi who is the mother of the Universe. Oh! Devi, you
are the mother of Lord Karthikeya and Lord Ganesha, and you are the Grihani of
Lord Mahadeva. Oh! Hail Bhavani! Hail
Bhavani! Hail Bhavani! You are the destroyer of the demons Chanda and Munda,
you are the slayer of demon Mahishasura, you have sieved off the limbs of Munda
and crushed his pride. You are that ferocious lion who fought against the
haughty elephant-like demons Shumbha and Nishumbha, you push down the demons
into the Krodharoopi ocean. Oh! Devi, you are eulogized by Veda, Shastra and
the thousand-tongue of Adhishesha, even after all these, they are finding it
difficult to describe your splendor. Oh! Matha, kindly provide me intense devotion
and dedication at the lotus feet of Lord Sri Ramachandra, like the Chathaka
birds longing for the rain clouds.”
