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.

Song of the soul.


I live a life of solitude

Thinking of you with gratitude

Was I not in your heavenly abode?

Serving you in the divine aboard!

Was I not your beloved son?

Oh my Lord why did you shun?

Some one informed the time had come

And here I was in my mother’s womb

I still remember your loving face

Which at farewell, showed sorrow’s trace.

Mother Lakshmi told me she’ll keep me wealthy here

I said, “What do I do there? When you’re all here”

How do I return? Show me the track

Which is the day you’ll take me back?

Hello Ramesh!

Excellent poem!

I felt a very sad feeling come over me.
Who am I?
What am I doing here?
Where will I go from here?
These are very big questions.

We are all trying to find answers to these questios in our own ways. Only God knows the truth!

Thanks for sharing!

Have a great day!

Hello sir,

"I felt a very sad feeling come over me."
I don't know what to say.

Very true. God only knows the true meaning of life.

Thank you sir.
