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.

Journey Begins





















"To start for Lanka, time is now right
Let's go to Lanka and put up a fight
We must get Sita, as we left her
About Ravan's might  we do not care"

Lakshman said so to Rama, with much enthuse
Rama smiled and nodded, He would not refuse
Sugriva instructed his army, to travel down south
About how Ravana must be killed, everyone opened their mouth

They traveled south, through the jungle
Their path with villages, did not mingle
Crores and crores of monkeys, took part in that army
Jumping, singing and talking, they were not smarmy

They traveled for a few days and reached the sea
The army of Sugriva, was as vast as the sea
Not knowing how to cross the sea
Each other their faces, they did see

As to how to cross the ocean, they were all thinking
Numerous ideas in their minds were clinking
There came Vibheeshan, with a surrenderer's norm
Jai Shri Ram Jai Jai Shri Ram
