2 * Ramcharitmanas *

 I worship the poet Shri Valmikiji and the poet Shri Hanumanji, who resides in the sacred forest in the form of the cluster of qualities of Shri Sitaramji and is filled with pure desires.4॥

 Ubhavastthithisanaharkarinim kleshaharinim.

 Most auspicious Sita Natoham Ramvallabham.  5॥  I salute Shri Sitaji, the beloved of Shri Ramchandraji, who is the creator, sustainer and destroyer, the destroyer of troubles and the giver of all welfare.  ॥5॥

 Whose entire world, Brahmadi gods and demons are under the influence of Maya, under whose power this entire visible world appears to be true like the illusion of a snake in a rope and whose feet alone are the only boat for those who wish to swim in  the ocean of existence, above all those reasons (reasons for all reasons and most Shrestha) I worship Lord Hariki who says Ram.  6..

 Ramayana nigditam kachidnyatopi.

 Swantsukhay Tulsi Raghunathgatha - Bhashanivandhamtimanjulamatnoti ॥  7 ॥

 According to many Puranas, Vedas and [Tantra] Shastras and which is mentioned in Ramayana and is also available from some other places, Tulsidas elaborates the story of Shri Raghunathji in very beautiful language for the pleasure of his conscience.  7 ॥

 So, the hero who has achieved success in his body.

 May I grant grace to my buddhi rasi, auspicious house.  1॥  By remembering Him, all tasks are accomplished, He who is the lord of the Ganas and has the mouth of a beautiful elephant, may He, the sign of wisdom and the abode of auspicious qualities (Shri Ganeshji), bless me.  ॥1॥
