Chapter – 35– Sri Vinaya Patrika – Praising Dhyanaparayana Nara Narayana

 

Sri Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Deva, I shall prostrate before the illustrious Nara Narayana, who is Dhyanaparayana, compassionate, resemble wisdom. Oh! Bhagavan, you are most promising to the Universe, you are kind, immersed in Tapasya for the welfare of the Universe and its living beings. Your attractive limbs have the appearance of a freshly blossomed blue lotus flower, you have the loveliness of crores of Manmatha, and have the great radiance of several Aditya. Your beautiful eyes have a resemblance to freshly bloomed lotus flower petals, you have a lustrous face that resembles the full moon, you have a pleasing smile on the face. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the storehouse of virtues and beauty, you are worshiped by deities, Bhrama, Shiva, Veda, intellectuals, Bhakthavrindh, and Santhvrindha, you are free from pride. The sacred river Ganga initiated from your lotus feet, and it is the life-giving nectar to the Muniroopi peacocks. You have won over the Manmatha who was assigned by Lord Indra to create obstacles to your Tapasya. You have crushed the pride of Manmatha, you are free from arrogance and pride, you have personified as Bhramachari who symbolize Shudhdhabodhaswaroopa Paramathma Parambhramam. Oh! Bhagavan, you have revealed the Pralayakala Leela which takes place at the time of Kalpantha to Maharishi Markandeya. Oh! Bhagavan, you are supreme ascetic, seated on the Padmasana posture in the dense wood of Badarikashrama which is surrounded by the beautiful landscape of mountains and rivers. Oh! Bhagavan, you are perceivable to the Siddha Munigana Yogeendra and Devatha, you are most promising to all. Oh! Vishwambara, there is a mountain called ‘Manbhang’ on the way to Badrikashram, and people hesitate to cross this mountain which would destroy the impurities of Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, Mathshcharya, body and I consciousness, interest in worldly matters and bondage. I am completely worn out of impurities of mind; therefore, I am not able to practice any austerities or vow. Oh! Bhagavan, there is a mountain called ‘Chiththabhang’ which would remove the ignorance/illusion in the Jeeva, there are several peaks which is difficult to climb up that would destroy the  Kama and Lobha of the Jeeva, there are wild animals like Raga, Dhvesha creates an obstacle to climb up these mountains. The lust and desires are extremely dangerous creates obstacles to climb the mountain Chiththabhang, and even the intellectuals and learned are not capable to fight against the poisonous Kama, people like me are helpless to compete with it. Oh! Nath, firstly, it is difficult to walk through the extremely difficult pathways to achieve your Dharsharn, secondly, these ferocious animals like the Kama, Krodha, Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Mathshcharya is relentlessly chasing me, I am powerless, don’t have a walking stick of Vairagyaroopi to support me. I am perplexed to have your Dharshan, I am exhausted with fear and anguish. Oh! Nath, kindly protect me from the sufferings and miseries of worldly existence, Oh! Bhagavan, I am completely distressed, I do not have the Dharmaroopi wealth and fortunes with me. I am helplessly doomed in extreme grief and pain due to the interest in worldly matters, attachment to wealth, possession, money, richness, fame, family, children, relatives, and companions, these are brutally damaged my intellect. Oh! Chakradhari, you have great effulgence, and prowess, and provider of welfare and happiness. Oh! Bhagavan, kindly shower your compassionate grace, and do not make any delay to give a helping hand to me.”
