killed the demons Khara, Dµuaƒa and Virådha. Hail, all-blissful Slayer of Råvaƒa, noblest
of kings, a moon to the lily-like line of King Da‹aratha. Your fair renown is familiar to the
Puråƒas, Vedas and Tantras and is sung in the congregations of gods, sages and saints.
Crushing false pride in Your mercy You are clever in everyway, O Jewel of the city of
Ayodhyå. Your very name wipes out the impurities of the Kali age and destroys worldly
attachment. Pray, protect the suppliant, O lord of Tulas∂dåsa.î (1ó5)

Listen, Girijå; (continues Lord ›a∆kara,) ìI have told you in full this holy narrative
according to My own lights. The stories of ›r∂ Råma are without number and beyond all
dimensions. Not even the Vedas and ›åradå (the goddess of speech) could recount
them all. Infinite is Råma and infinite His excellences; His births, exploits and names too
are endless. It may be possible to count the drops of water (in a shower of rain) or the
grains of sand; but the exploits of ›r∂ Råma (the Lord of the Raghus) cannot be
recounted in full. This sacred story enables one to reach the abode of ›r∂ Hari; whoever
hears it is blessed with unceasing devotion. Umå, (goes on Lord ›iva,) I have repeated
in full the delightful story which Bhu‹uƒŒi recited to the king of the birds. I have thus
recounted a few of ›r∂ Råmaís virtues; let me know, Bhavån∂ (Pårvat∂), what am I to tell
