the path of dharma - such as dharmaputra or hariScandra - do not ever lose
their kIrti; the world praises them forever. It is the kIrti that comes out of

be easily pleased or is it difficult to please Him?", "Can He be easily
approached or is it difficult to approach Him", etc. - stand easily dispelled.
SrI v. v. rAmAnujan quotes arjuna's words to kRshNa from the gItA: "None
but You (kRshNa) can possibly dispel my doubt":
