Srimathe Ramanujayanamaha!

Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam!!

 

In Ayodhya, there was not a single wicked person who went against dharma

troubling his wife and children,nor one with the sadistic mentality harassing

people. No uneducated person was there. None could be found who had no faith in

dharma or God or sa:stra. All were noble and well behaved. There were no people

who did not wear necklaces, who did not use pleasant scented body powders or who

did not use perfumes. None was there who did not wear sweet smelling clothes or

did not have full meals. None could be noticed there,who did not feed others or

who did not wear ornaments. None could be found in Ayodhya who had not

controlled manas and indriyas. All of them duly performed their daily duties.

No thieves were found there. There was no adulteration anywhere.

Thus people in Ayodhya led a prosperous and ideal virtuous life. The Brahmins

among them were devoted in performing their rituals. They had conquered their

senses. They studied scriptures and donated them. They did not like to take from

others. There was no Brahmin who had no faith in sasthras; or one who did not

adhere to truth and none who was uneducated. There was none who was jealous,

who had no strength or who was not a scholar. All the Brahmins studied Veda

with the six ‘anga:s’. They practised Vrathas. They were

interested in donating in thousands. None could be found depressed or upset. No

single woman or man was found ugly. All revered their king. All the four

castes of people worshipped the devathas and the guests. Gratitude, generosity,

valour were their natural qualities.

 

Jai Srimannarayana!

Ramanujamma Mudumbai,

Ramanujadasi.
