Guest guest Posted January 22, 2002 Report Share Posted January 22, 2002 Apoorva Ramayanam-V “kO gunavAn?” – Sowsheelya guna - continued Another sheela guna of Sri Rama can be observed in saying “gachchAnujAnAmi ranArthithas thvam pravichya rathrinchara raja lankAm AshvAchya niryAhi” to Ravana- “thiruvinai piritha kodumaiyiR kaduvisai arakkan”- go back to night to your Lanka and come back tomorrow, when Ravana lost his everything and was waiting to be killed. Another instance is when Sri Rama displayed his maha gunas- Dasaratha calls him and says tomorrow is his coronation day and the next day calls him and tells him to go to the forest at the instance of his wife, Sri Rama’s mental state did not change – it is referred to as “vanavasO mahOdaya:” by Valmiki. What we understand from this is that Sri RamA was happy to go to the forest where his sheela gunas will light up the environment, which chance he will not have at Ayodhya. Sri Rama went to the rishis in DandakAranyA and when they told them of their sufferings, He pained that he was late in coming to them, begged their pardon-“prasEthanthu bhavanthO mE hrEshO hi mamAthula. Yathithrusai raham viprai rupasthEyai rupasthitha:”. Also to VishvAmitra, who had just said “aham vEdmi mahAtmAnam rAmam satyaparAkramam”, he submitted that he and his brother are his servants and are beholden to do whatever the rishi orders and will be pleased with and requested the rishi to take their service. Such is Sri RamA’s sheela guna. We shall continue with the next question –“ka: vIryavAn?” and savour RamA’s sowvIryam in the next post. Adiyen Sri Vaishnava Dasan Selva narana ramanujan.
