Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 When the thief Ratnakara blindly followed the instructions of "Saptha Rishis" to repeat 'mara, mara, he had one supreme virtue. That is pure faith in the words of Rishis. In course of time the words and sounds mingled mysteriously and without his knowledge, he was repeating "Rama, Rama" endlessly without any respite. He forgot his body, his hunger, his thirst, his needs, his desires, his family and everything he considered as 'his'. That amounted to "Sampoorna Saranagathi". Combined with the potent name "Rama", it soon pulverised the mounds of sins and transformed him thoroughly into a sage. Thus sage Valmiki raised from the anthill in which "thief Ratnakara entered". What a profound blessing?. Who can pen the great epic "Ramayana". Faith and steadfastedness and surrender made all things possible. A piece of charcoal has been converted to a Diamond. "Yes, "Die Mind" was achieved in his case. Sairam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
