Chapter
201 – Sri Vinaya Pathrika – Sri Ramanama to achieve Ananyabhakthi
Sri
Tulsidas Maharaj speaks “Oh! Prabho, there are certain things that can’t be
disclosed, and some of the things cannot be kept secret, but I have to tell you
this, even though I am a worthless sinful Jeeva I feel it was good that I have
disclosed my sufferings to my Master who is pure, unblemished, and benevolent. Many a time I have back footed thinking about your splendor, somehow I have
gathered courage to appeal before you, all my life I was ashamed to approach
you, I have been drenched in worldly matters, Ahamkara, Mamakara, Kama, Krodha,
Lobha, Moha, Madha, and Masthcharya, I was illusioned/Mahamoha, ignorant soaked
in material welfare and bodily pleasures of fleeting nature, Oh!Prabho, your pleasant
nature, kindness, and compassion to the distressed and depraved Jeeva, immensely
attracted me, hence I have taken shelter in your sacred name ‘Ram’. Oh! Prabho,
you get easily pleased to your devotees who immerses singing in praise of your
glories, recite your splendor, folding hands and bowing down head before you,
even if they are from the lowly clan. Oh! Prabho wasn’t that the power of pure
love and devotion? Whoever taken shelter at your lotus feet got rid of
impurities of the mind, Ahamkara and Mamakara, sufferings of poverty, and achieves
Yoga and Kshema. There was no one Prathapi/mighty as demon Ravana and no one
was weak and fearful like Vibheeshana, ultimately Vibheeshana took shelter at
your lotus feet have achieved immense glories, Ananyabhakthi at your lotus feet
and crowned as the King of Lanka, and Ravana who was haughty and arrogant got
killed in your hands. Therefore, whoever approaches you with sincere devotion
and faith, and accepts their own impurities of mind and sins committed, would
achieve all the auspiciousness, otherwise, it would push them into grief and
miseries. Oh! Jeeva, if you constantly remember the legend of Jatayu, Ahalya,
Gajendra, Ajamila, Shabari, who have achieved immense bliss with the pure love
and devotion at the lotus feet of Lord, your love for the Lord Ramachandra
would grow boundless. Oh! Prabho, your sacred name ‘Ram’ resemble Kalpavruksha
that fulfills all the desires of the worshiper and change them grow desire less
in their lives/Poornna Kama. Oh! Prabho, the recitation of your name removes
the sins of the worshiper, thereby the evilness of the Kali era get weakens.
Oh! Karunanidhan, all that I desire to achieve Anananyabhakthi at your lotus
feet, I would like to take great pleasure like a fish, splattering in the Sriramachandhra
Bhakthiroopi sacred Ganga.”
