BOOK 3: ARANYA KANDA

SECTION 66

While Rama is bewailing like a forlorn as his anguish is scorching him, rendered impoverished with an inanimate heart as a high passion possessed him, Lakshmana, the son of Sumitra, suppliantly gripped his feet and started to address him. (4 66 1, 2)

Oh, Rama, as Gods have reaped Ambrosia after a prolonged churning of Milky Ocean, you are a reap of King Dasharatha s superlative ascesis and even by his superior acts… (4 66 3) Our father was an enlivener of all the subjects and that king was beholden only to your rosy endowments, but he obtained godhood by your separation… this is what we heard from Bharata… (4 66 4)

If you are unable to withstand this anguish chanced on you, oh, Kakutstha, then how a simpleton and whose boldness is meagre can withstand it… (4 66 5) Oh, first and foremost man, tell me who is uncaught by mischance, which mischance will be catchy like fire catch, and oh, king, even that, that lets up momently… (4 66 6)

If you are going to blaze away worlds with your radiance in your ruefulness, to where the ordinary people in rue shall go for solace, really… (4 66 7) World s disposition is this way only, even if Nahusha, the son Yayati, has become an egalitarian with Indra, writhe touched him off… (4 66 8)

Which great sage Vashishta is there, who is also the priest of our father, he parented a hundred sons in one day and like that they are all eliminated in one day by Vishvamitra, for which Vashishta also lamented, but not for a long… (4 66 9) This Mother Earth who is the mother of worlds and venerated by all animate and inanimate, oh, king of Kosala kingdom, even she undergoes tremors and earthquakes… (4 66 10)

Which duteous pair is the pair of eyes of the world in whom all the systems of world are peremptory, though that pair of Sun and Moon are doughtily influential in this solar system, eclipse draws nigh of them… (4 66 11) Even very great incorporates like earth and suchlike planets, oh, bullish man, or even the Gods, or even all corporeal beings, cannot

get release from the predestine of Supreme Being… (4 66 12) Oh, tigerly man, we hear that whether Gods like Indra et al., are ethical and/or unethical, yet they too have the resultant agonies and ecstasies… hence, it is inapt of you to fret thyself… (4 66 13) Whether Vaidehi is stolen or slain, oh, brave one, it will be inapt of you sadden like this as with any other commoner without tracking her

whereabouts… (4 66 14) Persons of your like who are always equable in their outlook, oh, Rama, they will remain non dispirited even if they are undergoing desperate straits, and they will not just sadden like this… (4 66 15) Oh, foremost man among men, you ratiocinate in subtle pursuit, objectively and brainily, and great brains will comprehend good and bad

in subtlety with their braininess… (4 66 16) Indiscernible are the rights and wrongs of actions, and indefinite are the cherished fruits of those actions, and without performing any action, fruits also will be nonexistent… (4 66 17) The great brains with their braininess are clearly comprehending the indiscernible, indefinite or infirm rights and wrongs of their

actions, thus they translate their thinking into action… and thus they are undertaking humanly possible action… but not sitting back, unlike you… Oh, brave one, to those that are interested in endeavours, whether or not they are uninterested in the results of their actions, either rights or wrongs, but even to them cherished fruits does not occur, effortlessly…

Oh valiant one, indeed you alone have said this way to me previously and repeatedly, who really can profess you even he were to be professedly the Jupiter… (4 66 18) Oh, great discerner, your thinking process is non explicatory even to Gods, but now that thinking process is obliquely and utterly slumberous owing to your sadness, hence I am addressing your percipience and this is no schoolteaching… (4 66 19)

Oh, foremost one among Ikshvaku, oh, Rama, contemplate the divineness of those immortals and their pure being in maintaining world order, also consider the humanness of these mortals and their helpless susceptibility to pain, also count on your own valour that which can annihilate the whole of anything… and then come to conclusion whether or not to annihilate everything… but, before that try hard to eliminate the abuser, lest he may abuse many others… (4 66 20)

Oh, best one among men, what is it you gain on performing a complete annihilation owing to a single soul s malefaction, hence, mark him… that malefactor and a malevolent of yours, and it will be apt of you to uproot him… him alone… (4 66 21)
