ìIn beholding your feet, O king of sages, all my good deeds have been rewarded.
Now I intend to go wherever you command me to go and where no anchorite may
feel disturbed. For such monarchs as prove a source of annoyance to hermits and
ascetics are consumed without fire. While the satisfaction of Bråhmaƒas is the root
of happiness, their wrath consumes millions of generations. Bearing this in mind pray
tell me a place to which I may proceed with S∂tå and Lakmaƒa (Sumitråís son), and
building a charming hut of leaves and grass may spend some time there, O good sir.î
Hearing these guileless and unsophisticated words of ›r∂ Råma (the Chief of Raghuís
line) the enlightened sage exclaimed, ìQuite so, right You are. Why should You not
speak thus, O Glory of Raghuís line, ever busy as You are in maintaining the laws
laid down by the Vedas?î (1ó4)

ìWhile You are the custodian of the Vedic laws and the Lord of the universe, S∂tå
(Janakaís Daughter) is Your Måyå (Divine Energy) who creates, preserves and dissolves
the universe on receiving the tacit approval of Your gracious Self. As for Lakmaƒa he
is no other than the thousand-headed ›ea (the lord of serpents), the supporter of the
globe and the lord of the entire creation, both animate and inanimate. Having assumed
the form of a king for the sake of the gods You are out to crush the host of wicked
demons.î

abigata akatha apåra neti neti nita nigama kaha.126.
ìYour Being, O Råma, is beyond the range of speech and beyond
conception, unknown, unutterable and infinite; the Vedas ever speak of It as ënot
thatí, ënot thatí.î (126)
