इति श्रीरामचरितमानसे सकल कलि कलुष विध्वंसने विमल वैराग्य सम्पादनो नाम तृतीयः सोपानः समाप्तः ।
7 verses · 46 of 46
Saints shrink to hear their own praise and rejoice to hear another's, Rama continues. They are even and cool, never leave right conduct, are simple by nature and love all. They keep japa and vows, love the feet of guru, Govinda and Brahmins, and have faith, forgiveness and compassion. They have detachment, discernment and humility, never act from hypocrisy or pride and serve others without motive. Not even Sharada and the Vedas could tell all their virtues. Narada clasps the Lord's feet and leaves for Brahmaloka. Tulsidas closes: those who sing Ravana's foe's glory gain firm bhakti without japa or yoga. The young woman's body is a lamp flame; mind, do not be the moth. The colophon ends the third step, Aranya Kanda.
निज गुन श्रवन सुनत सकुचाहीँ । पर गुन सुनत अधिक हरषाहीं ॥
सम सीतल नहिँ त्यागहिं नीती । सरल सुभाउ सबहिँ सन प्रीती ॥
nija guna śravana sunata sakucāhīm̐ | para guna sunata adhika haraṣāhīṃ ||
sama sītala nahim̐ tyāgahiṃ nītī | sarala subhāu sabahim̐ sana prītī ||
जप तप ब्रत दम सञ्जम नेमा । गुरु-गोबिन्द-बिप्र-पद प्रेमा ॥
श्रद्धा छमा मयत्री दाया । मुदिता मम-पद-प्रीति अमाया ॥
japa tapa brata dama sañjama nemā | guru-gobinda-bipra-pada premā ||
śraddhā chamā mayatrī dāyā | muditā mama-pada-prīti amāyā ||
बिरति बिबेक बिनय बिज्ञाना । बोध जथारथ बेद पुराना ॥
दम्भ मान मद करहिं न काऊ । भूलि न देहिँ कुमारग पाऊ ॥
birati bibeka binaya bijñānā | bodha jathāratha beda purānā ||
dambha māna mada karahiṃ na kāū | bhūli na dehim̐ kumāraga pāū ||
गावहिं सुनहिँ सदा मम लीला । हेतु रहित पर-हित-रत-सीला ॥
मुनि सुनु साधुन्ह के गुन जेते । कहि न सकहिँ सारद श्रुति तेते ॥
gāvahiṃ sunahim̐ sadā mama līlā | hetu rahita para-hita-rata-sīlā ||
muni sunu sādhunha ke guna jete | kahi na sakahim̐ sārada śruti tete ||
कहि सक न सारद सेष नारद, सुनत पद-पङ्कज गहे ।
अस दीनबन्धु कृपाल अपने, भगत गुन निज-मुख कहे ॥
सिर नाइ बारहिँ बार चरनन्हि, ब्रह्मपुर नारद गये ।
ते धन्य तुलसीदास आस बिहाइ जे हरि रँग रँए ॥
kahi saka na sārada seṣa nārada, sunata pada-paṅkaja gahe |
asa dīnabandhu kṛpāla apane, bhagata guna nija-mukha kahe ||
sira nāi bārahim̐ bāra carananhi, brahmapura nārada gaye |
te dhanya tulasīdāsa āsa bihāi je hari ram̐ga ram̐e ||
रावनारि जसु पावन, गावहिं सुनहिँ जे लोग ।
राम भगति दृढ़ पावहिँ, बिनु बिराग जप जोग ॥
rāvanāri jasu pāvana, gāvahiṃ sunahim̐ je loga |
rāma bhagati dṛr̤ha pāvahim̐, binu birāga japa joga ||
दीप-सिखा सम जुबति तन, मन जनि होसि पतङ्ग ।
भजहि राम तजि काम मद, करहि सदा सतसङ्ग ॥
dīpa-sikhā sama jubati tana, mana jani hosi pataṅga |
bhajahi rāma taji kāma mada, karahi sadā satasaṅga ||
