The Ultimate Liberator!

For the seekers of knowledge
Can there be a knowledge?
better than
The Knowledge of The Divine, Shri Rama!

The one who liberated
Even the blades of grasses
And all the swarms of ants

Leaving none behind
That ever existed
In the Good City of Ayodhya

And placed them in
An exotic heaven
Created exclusively for them
By the Great Grandshire Brahma!

-Nammazhvaar


Ramayanam is Agriculture
Bhagavatham is Harvest
-Me


The twin-syllable, Rama
When a devotee exalts!
The Birth-Death cycle
It permanently halts

Goodness and Wealth
It everyday brings
Sin and poverty
It cleanses and shrinks

-Kambar


Goodness Honesty Sweetness Simplicity
Gentleness Strength Humility Bravery
Valour Talent Prowess Success
Memory Trustworthiness Heroism Genuinity
Such adorable qualities and so much more
By chanting Rama's name you will score!

-Me

My Lord's Story: Goodness Incarnate

Ramayanam in English poetry.

The Supreme Lord of the Universe was once born on this earth as a Human Being, faced challenges and had His share of pain and pleasure going through both good and bad times like any of us. Like any of us He too, took His turn in laughter and cry.

This humility of The Lord, that makes Him come down to earth and share with us our difficulties to show us a way to handle them is what I admire in Him. This quality of Him, makes me surrender to Him unconditionally and makes me want to sing His Glory on and on and on.

My Lord's Story is an out pour of my devotion that seeps out in gratitude for the pains He took to be a lighthouse for us, to cross the ocean of Samsara.

Beautiful Love

Love is very beautiful. Falling in love is a great experience. This song is just a sample. :)




For those who don't know Tamil, its English version is below.

Bird, where are you?
You call me to fly
I come in search of your whereabouts, dear!

You are the place where my earth begins. Aren't you?
You are the place where my path is. Aren't you?

Any direction I see, I see the face of the girl.
Are fishes ever seen in mirage?
Do eyes ever lie?

The lines you wrote in the letter were like an ocean.
I float on its waves like a boat.

The path which I walk along with you...
Won't it keep extending like the horizon...
Talking stories, come let's go with the wind...
Even if conversations dry up, your silence is enough!
Are not the grasses, vegetation and birds enough for us?
Won't this whole earth become beautiful after this?

I am liking to live for the first time.
I am seeing some light for the first time.
A branch that was broken is starting to blossom...
A door opens for the first time.
And wind gushes in for the first time.
For the first time a dream comes true, dear love.

Poor love is a river whose sources are pains..
Even if it falls it doesn't get hurt nor break
But rolls on and becomes a river again.

In this journey, this is enough for me dear
For what else, am I going to ask for? My love!
Even in separation, I will live in this minute, in my mind.
Won't this minute continue forever?
Won't my lonely journeys come to an end today?

Thanks to Jeevan, Jeevan's World. He is the inspiration for sharing a song like this.
