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.

Two Spies From Ravana






















Two spies into the monkey army, Ravana sent
To know the strength of the monkey army, He was bent
Suka and Charana were the names of the spies
They impenetrated the monkey army, in monkey's disguise

Information about the monkey army, they did try to collect
To talk with the naivest monkeys, they did try to select
 But Vibhishana easily identified them
Among the Lankites, He was a gem

Suka and Charana, by the monkeys were thrashed
Left, right, and front, by the monkeys they were bashed
Suka and Charana, were brought before Ram
Rama asked the monkeys to stop beating and be calm

Rama gave permission to Suka and Charana
To gather all information, and go to Ravana
"Tell your king, I have nothing to hide
Victory is going to be, on my side"

Saying so Lord Rama dismissed the spies
Suka and Charana, regretted their lies
Suka and Charana went back to their king
And Rama's glory they did sing

Ravana was irritated by their speech
At Suka and Charana, he did screech
He caught them by their necks, very tight
And asked them to disappear from his sight

Suka and Charana realised the greatness of Ram
And wondered how a leader could keep so calm
They realised Ravana was no match for Ram
Jai Shri Ram! Jai Jai Shri Ram!!
