Rama, bhakta aBimAnI - part 3

Earlier, I wrote about how Rama is bhakta abimani in Vibishana’s episode where He felt could not fulfil the oath He had taken to crown the latter.

Another instance from Yuddha Kandam during the fight between Rama and Ravana.

1

Indra sends his charioteer Mathali much later and Raghavan does not have a chariot to match up to Ravana in terms of height. Our Hanuman expands himself to a size that is comparable to that of the opponent.

When Ravana looks at Hanuman, he gets wild as former caused havoc 2
To Lanka, so he attacked him with arrows and made Hanuman bleed.

Rama’s patience is already explained by Valmiki in the first chapter

‘KshamaiyA pritvi samaH’ - His patience equals that of earth.

He exhibited such characteristic even during this fight, but got angry when 3
Hanuman was being hit with arrows as he happens to be Rama’s ardent bhakta.

Valmiki also says

காலாக்னி ஸதர்ஷ க்ரோதே kAlaGnI saDruSa krOdE

His anger holds as much fierce as that of a forest fire.

When Hanuman got hit, Valmiki says

KrODasya vaSamE ivAn - engulfed by rage 4
As His bhakta was hit. He decimated the army of Ravana, destroyed his chariot and made him lose all the weapons.

This is another instance of how Rama is a bhakta aBimAni

Jai Sriram

Srimad Ramayanam - description of Rama and Lakshmana by King Janaka

One of the key highlights of Bala Kandam in Srimad Ramayanam is the celestial marriage of Rama and Sita.

The background to this is that Rishi Vishwamitra takes Rama and Lakshmana for duSta niGrahaM and SiSta 1

paripAlanam in line with Bhagawan’s statement ‘paritrAnAyA sAdUnAm vinASAya catuSkritAm’.

Rishi does penance to get Rama and Sita married as he knows the incarnation of Bhagawan and Thayar. Once yajna got completed, he took them to Vidarba kingdom 2

for which King Janaka was the king.

King Janaka was said to be Rishi Yajnavalkyar’s disciple and a brahma jnAni. He is one who was contented in the nirguna brahmam, however when Rishi Vishwamitra brings Rama and Lakshmana to the yajnA salA of King Janaka, he was instantly 3

attracted to the rUpa saunDaryA of Rama and Lakshmana.

Valmiki describes this episode using the following slokas

इमौ कुमारौ भद्रं ते देवतुल्यपराक्रमौ
गजसिंहगती वीरौ शार्दूलवृषभोपमौ
पद्मपत्रविशालाक्षौ खड्गतूणीधनुर्धरौ
अश्विनाविव रूपेण समुपस्थितयौवनौ 4

यदृच्छयैव गां प्राप्तौ देवलोकादिवामरौ
कथं पद्भ्यामिह प्राप्तौ किमर्थं कस्य वा मुने

Rama and Lakshmana have the ability to adapt themselves to the surroundings. As they come from the royal lineage, the ability to display their strong character is noticed by King Janaka. 5
Srimad Ramayanam - qualities of Lord Rama

Ramayanam starts with a satsangam between Valmiki Bhagawan and Sage Narada with former asking 16 questions enquiring about a human in their contemporary time with the following qualities: 1

1) குணவான் (gunavAN) - virtuous person

2) கஷ்ச்ச வீர்யவான் (kaSca vIryavAN) - valorous / vigorous

3) தர்மஜ்நஸ்ய (Darmajnasya) - unwavering in their dharma or conscientious

4) க்ரிதஞஸ்ய (kritajnasya) - who always remembers good deeds done by others (grateful) 4

5) சத்ய வாக்கியோ (satyavAkyO) - speaking truth

6) த்ரடவ்ரத (DratavrataH) - who always fulfils promises, determined in his deed

7) சாரித்ரேன ச கோ யுக்த (cAritrEna ca kO yuktaH) - appropriate in disposition 5
Personality of Rama -

ஸர்வதா அபிகத சத்பி சமுத்திர இவ ஸிந்துபி ஆர்யா சர்வ சமஷ்ச்சைவ சதய்வ ப்ரியதர்ஷின

Just as rivers eventually flow into the sea, all the learned people in Ayodhya were eager to converse with Rama on topics of higher learning.

1

ஸ சா சர்வ குனோபேதஹ கௌசல்யா நந்தா வர்தனா
சமுத்திர இவ காம்பிர்யே தைரியென ஹிமவானிவ

As an embodiment of all good qualities, He brings delight to His mother, Kausalya.

His majestic appearance equals an ocean and determination that of Himalayas

2

விஷ்ணுனா சதரூஷோ வீர்யே சோமவத் ப்ரியதர்ஷின
காலாக்னி சதருஷ க்ரோதே க்ஷமய ப்ரிதிவி சமஹா

His valour match Vishnu's and looks resemble the pleasing moon.

His anger matches to the fire in pralayam and tendency to forgive match that of Mother Earth. 3

ரக்ஷிதா ஜீவலோகஸ்ய தர்மஸ்ய பரிரக்ஷிதா
ரக்ஷிதா சுவஸ்ய தர்மஸ்ய ஸ்வஜனஸ்ய ச ரக்ஷிதா

He is someone who cares for the wellbeing of all living entities.

He is the protector of dharma.

He follows His dharma strictly and ensures His people follow them too.

Jai Sriram 4
Srimad Ramayanam - Kausalya's mangalasasanam to Rama

This episode is quite moving.

If Rama displayed courage and resilience in the face of distress through His stoicism and equanimity, Kausalya went a step ahead in being the mom of Rama.

1

She did what a brave mother would do - wished Rama and her mangalasasanam is quite notable.

Specifically, there are 3 that are also recited as mangala slokas upon completion of parayanam.

यन् मन्गलम् सहस्र अक्षे सर्व देव नमः कृते
वृत्र नाशे समभवत् तत् ते भवतु मन्गलम् 2

யன் மங்களம் சஹஸ்ராக்ஷே சர்வதேவ நமஸ்க்ருதே
வ்ருத்ரநாஷே சமபவத் தத்தே பவது மங்களம்

Felicity occurred when the 1000 eyed Indra killed the demon Vriddasura, let that felicity come to you. 3

यन् मन्गलम् सुपर्णस्य विनता अकल्पयत् पुरा
अमृतम् प्रार्थयानस्य तत् ते भवतु मन्गलम्

யன் மங்களம் ஸுபர்ணஸ்ய வினதா கல்பயத்புரா
அம்ருதம் ப்ரார்த்தயநஸ்ய தத்தே பவது மங்களம்

Which blessing was invoked by Vinata to Garuda who was setting off to bring nectar in the past , may that 4

blessing happen to you

अमृतोत्पादने दैत्यान् घ्नतो वज्रधरस्य यत्
अदितिर्मङ्गळम् प्रादात् तत्ते भवतु मङ्गळम्

அம்ருதோத் பாதனே தைத்யானு க்னதோ வஜ்ரதரஸ்ய யத்
அதிதிர் மங்களம் ப்ராதாத் தத்தே பவது மங்களம்

While blessing was bestowed on Devendra, the wielder of the thunderbolt , 5

#தினம்_ஒரு_திருவாசகம்
தொல்லை இரும்பிறவிச் சூழும் தளை நீக்கி
அல்லல் அறுத்து ஆனந்தம் ஆக்கியதே – எல்லை
மருவா நெறியளிக்கும் வாதவூர் எங்கோன்
திருவாசகம் என்னும் தேன்

பொருள்:
1.எப்போது ஆரம்பித்தது என அறியப்படமுடியாத தொலை காலமாக (தொல்லை)

2. இருந்து வரும் (இரும்)


3.பிறவிப் பயணத்திலே ஆழ்த்துகின்ற (பிறவி சூழும்)

4.அறியாமையாகிய இடரை (தளை)

5.அகற்றி (நீக்கி),

6.அதன் விளைவால் சுகதுக்கமெனும் துயரங்கள் விலக (அல்லல் அறுத்து),

7.முழுநிறைவாய்த் தன்னுளே இறைவனை உணர்த்துவதே (ஆனந்த மாக்கியதே),

8.பிறந்து இறக்கும் காலவெளிகளில் (எல்லை)

9.பிணைக்காமல் (மருவா)

10.காக்கும் மெய்யறிவினைத் தருகின்ற (நெறியளிக்கும்),

11.என் தலைவனான மாணிக்க வாசகரின் (வாதவூரெங்கோன்)

12.திருவாசகம் எனும் தேன் (திருவா சகமென்னுந் தேன்)

முதல்வரி: பிறவி என்பது முன்வினை விதையால் முளைப்பதோர் பெருமரம். அந்த ‘முன்வினை’ எங்கு ஆரம்பித்தது எனச் சொல்ல இயலாது. ஆனால் ‘அறியாமை’ ஒன்றே ஆசைக்கும்,, அச்சத்துக்கும் காரணம் என்பதால், அவையே வினைகளை விளைவிப்பன என்பதால், தொடர்ந்து வரும் பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘அறியாமையே’ காரணம்

அறியாமைக்கு ஆரம்பம் கிடையாது. நமக்கு ஒரு பொருளைப் பற்றிய அறிவு எப்போதிருந்து இல்லை? அதைச் சொல்ல முடியாது. அதனாலேதான் முதலடியில், ஆரம்பமில்லாத அஞ்ஞானத்தை பிறவிகளுக்குக் காரணமாகச் சொல்லியது. ஆனால் அறியாமை, அறிவின் எழுச்சியால், அப்போதே முடிந்து விடும்.
The best morning routine?

Starts the night before.

9 evening habits that make all the difference:

1. Write down tomorrow's 3:3:3 plan

• 3 hours on your most important project
• 3 shorter tasks
• 3 maintenance activities

Defining a "productive day" is crucial.

Or else you'll never be at peace (even with excellent output).

2. End the workday with a shutdown ritual

Create a short shutdown ritual (hat-tip to Cal Newport). Close your laptop, plug in the charger, spend 2 minutes tidying your desk. Then say, "shutdown."

Separating your life and work is key.

3. Journal 1 beautiful life moment

Delicious tacos, presentation you crushed, a moment of inner peace. Write it down.

Gratitude programs a mindset of abundance.

4. Lay out clothes

Get exercise clothes ready for tomorrow. Upon waking up, jump rope for 2 mins. It will activate your mind + body.

Great article from @AsheSchow. I lived thru the 'Satanic Panic' of the 1980's/early 1990's asking myself "Has eveyrbody lost their GODDAMN MINDS?!"


The 3 big things that made the 1980's/early 1990's surreal for me.

1) Satanic Panic - satanism in the day cares ahhhh!

2) "Repressed memory" syndrome

3) Facilitated Communication [FC]

All 3 led to massive abuse.

"Therapists" -and I use the term to describe these quacks loosely - would hypnotize people & convince they they were 'reliving' past memories of Mom & Dad killing babies in Satanic rituals in the basement while they were growing up.

Other 'therapists' would badger kids until they invented stories about watching alligators eat babies dropped into a lake from a hot air balloon. Kids would deny anything happened for hours until the therapist 'broke through' and 'found' the 'truth'.

FC was a movement that started with the claim severely handicapped individuals were able to 'type' legible sentences & communicate if a 'helper' guided their hands over a keyboard.
