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.

Ravana's Death






















Ravana came to the field on his chariot
Rama came to the field without a chariot
The devas wanted the fight between them to be equal
Indra sent his chariot for Rama, as a sequel

Ravana had none, but himself now
To kill Rama, he did vow
Rama on the other hand had all his friends
Rama's enthuse was on the upward trends

Ravana was covered with ignorance, anger and sorrow
He could not think clearly while he shot his arrow
Lord Rama easily took on Ravan, with all His might
Lord Rama decided that this must be the final fight

Lord Rama knew that Ravana must be relieved of sorrow
And so with grace and peace, Lord Rama shot his arrow
Ravana was fighting a psychological fight within
Rama was, positive, confident and peaceful from within

Ravana's mind kept coming with regret every moment
His mind kept replaying things, from the first event
Ravana's mind was heavy, fighting great turmoil
Rama's mind had no regrets, and therefore no turmoil

Rama with a series of arrows, cut off  Ravana's heads
All of Ravana's heads, fell on the ground with thuds
To Rama's surprise, after the tenth head, a eleventh head popped up
Every time Rama cut a head, another head popped up

Rama kept cutting off heads, one after the other
Ravana's heads kept popping, one after the other
Now the charioteer of Rama, told Rama a news
A truth about Ravana, that Rama could use

'Ravana's life was in His navel', was the news
Lord Rama without delay pulled off Ravana's fuse
Lord Rama shot an arrow at Ravana's navel
Ravana fell to the ground dead, admiring his rival

Jai Shri Ram Jai Jai Shri Ram
Jai Shri Ram Jai Jai Shri Ram
Jai Shri Ram Jai Jai Shri Ram
Jai Shri Ram Jai Jai Shri Ram
