Om asmath gurubhyo namaha

Srimathe Ramanujaya Namaha

 

Sriramayana is called as Deergha Saranagathi, because it proves

the importance of Surrender to the Supreme one, through various

characters. Ramayana starts with Devathas surrendering to Lord Vishnu

who accepted their prayers and agreed to incarnate Himself as a Nara

(man) into this world and chose King Dasaratha as His father and

Kausalya as His mother.

 

In 17th sarga, Chaturmukha Brahma said to all the Devathas to

create their sons in the form of vanaras (monkeys), to serve the

supreme lord when He comes

down to earth. Brahma also said, " I have already created Jambavan

(the bear) and now all of you have to create your amsas (powers) on

this earth." Immediately all the Devathas, siddhas, charanas etc.

obeyed the order of Brahma and created their sons to serve Srirama.

 

Indra, the king of Devathas created VALI, who was the king of

vanaras, Surya created SUGREEVA, Deva's Guru Bruhaspathi created THARA

who was the advisor for Vali, Kubera created Gandhamadhana.

Viswakarma the architect of Devathas created Nala, (to construct the

bridge over the ocean to Lanka), Agni created Neela, who was

equivalent to Agni in radiance, power, and fame, and Aswani Devathas,

doctors of swarga loka, created twins Mainda and Dwivida, who were

doctors for vanaras during the war. Hanuman, who was created by Vayu,

had the speed of Garuda ,that enabled him to cross the ocean during

the search for Sita. Like this all the Devathas created thousands of

vanaras to serve Rama.

 

All the vanaras had the capability to change their form

according to their wish and they could travel anywhere they want. Only

nails and claws were their weapons. But they had the capacity to blast

mountains like missiles, they could control mad elephants, they could

leap across the ocean, and they could even seize the clouds entering

into Heaven. Among all the vanaras Vali was the mighty one, who became

the king of vanaras and Sugreeva, the prince. With their strength and

fearlessness they became the protectors of vanaras.

 

We have to recognize here, that before the birth of Lord Vishnu

on earth, all the Devathas were endowed with their own powers (on

earth) to serve Srirama. Any person who wants to lead a righteous and

dharmic path, all the Devathas will support them to protect Dharma.

After all the preparations of Devathas were completed Lord Vishnu was

ready to incarnate into this world in four forms….

 

Jaisrimannarayana!
