Srimad Ramayana Thatthva Deepika (39)-Ba:laka:nda

[Guest guest]

Sri:mathe: Ramanujayanamaha!

Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigale: Saranam!!

 

 

Sri Rama equals Dhanada in generosity. Kube:ra

is Dhanada. He has enormous wealth and also a

large heart to donate the same to others. So

Kubera’s name is ‘Dhanada’ but not ‘Dhanadhyaksha’.

 

Dhana:dhyaksha could be a miser .But only a

person who is not miserly can be a ‘Dhanada’ -

that is he can donate to others generously.

Generally the most difficult thing in the world

is to part with one’s own wealth. Sri Rama’s

mind never wavered on seeing women or wealth.

He was the one who left his kingdom with no

second thoughts. He could leave his dearest

wife for the sake of his people. Such

‘Thya:ga mu:rthi’ is Sri Ramachandra. Sacrifice

is the foremost quality of humanity.

 

The first mantra of the I:sa:va:syo:panishad preaches:

 

“the:na thyakthe:na bhunji:ttha:ha: ma:grutthaha

kasyaswiddhanam”

 

“Enjoy everything with renunciation. Don’t long

for anything with the notion that it is yours.

Whose property is this? - Of course, not yours!”

 

One who follows this main principle is a human

being. This is Bhagavan’s attribute. Bhagava:n

who is the owner of this whole ‘Vibhu:thi’

grants it fully to all the earnest seekers who

take refuge in Him.

 

Who has provided us with all these luxuries? -

It’s none other than Bhagava:n.

 

 

To be continued....

Jai Srimannarayana!!

 

Ramanujamma Mudumbai,

Ramanujadasi.
