Srimad Ramayana Tatva Deepika#80 (Ba:la Ka:nda)

Sreemathe Ramanujaya Namaha!

Sri Jeeyar Thiruvadigale Saranam!!

 

In Sri Ramayan we see Sitha as the most chaste woman. Woman is the main

nerve of the human race. When she is in the right path the entire race

would be sound. That is why Sitha came to teach us the right behaviour.

 

Knowing the a:thma swarupa if one behaves in the manner in which such

knowledgeable person has to lead his life, then it is easy for one to

attain Bhagavan. Sithadevi advocated such path. Those who know her

‘charitha’ can keep up the a:thma swarupa and attain Bhagavan. Sri Rama

himself proved thus by listening to Sri Ramacharitha as Sitha:charitha.

Or else the virtuous valiant emperor would not come forward to listen to

his story with so much enthusiasm. So Ramayan means the story of the

‘ji:va’. Sitha’s story reveals the ‘ji:va:thma swaru:pa’ clearly.

 

Another name for Sri Ramayan is ‘poulasthyavadha’ means Ravanavadha.

This is the main objective of Rama:vatha:ra. Ravana would not get his

death unless killed by a human being. He received a boon that he should

not get death by others. For that reason Bhagavan took a human body and

killed Ravana. We should know the secret of this. The manas in us is

the Ravanaasura. Our soul is Sithamma. She belongs to Bhagavan alone.

She is for Bhagavan alone. But Ravana tried to own her for himself. The

manas called Ravana tries to gain control over the a:thma to use it for

his sake as per his wish though a:thma actually belongs to Bhagavan

and is for Bhagavan. This is the cause of our grief. One who is capable

of winning over such manas is “human being” alone. One who ever achieves

control on manas can attain the eternal company of Bhagavan forever. So

human life is the greatest.

Jai srimannarayana!
