Gems from Sunderkand - 07/07 by Swami Aparajitananda given at Chinmaya Mission Chicago-Yamunotri.

Swamiji summarises Sunderkanad narrated by him in all previous talks.
Thereafter he takes us to the very devotional seen, wherein Lord Rama is explaining the power devotion to Vibhishana.
सुनहु सखा निज कहउँ सुभाऊ।जान भुसुंडि संभु गिरिजाऊ॥
जौं नर होइ चराचर द्रोही।आवै सभय सरन तकि मोही॥
तजि मद मोह कपट छल नाना।करउँ सद्य तेहि साधु समाना॥
जननी जनक बंधु सुत दारा।तनु धनु भवन सुहृद परिवारा॥
सब कै ममता ताग बटोरी।मम पद मनहि बाँध बरि डोरी॥
समदरसी इच्छा कछु नाहीं।हरष सोक भय नहिं मन माहीं॥
अस सज्जन मम उर बस कैसें।लोभी हृदयँ बसइ धनु जैसें॥
तुम्ह सारिखे संत प्रिय मोरें।धरउँ देह नहिं आन निहोरें॥
सगुन उपासक परहित निरत नीति दृढ़ नेम,ते नर प्रान समान मम जिन्ह कें द्विज पद प्रेम।
Lord Rama beautifully explains our bondages and simple way to get rid of the same:
जननी जनक बंधु सुत दारा।तनु धनु भवन सुहृद परिवारा॥
सब कै ममता ताग बटोरी।मम पद मनहि बाँध बरि डोरी॥
Lord Rama praises Vibhishan
सुनु लंकेस सकल गुन तोरें।तातें तुम्ह अतिसय प्रिय मोरें॥
Vibhishana’s devotional response to above praise:
पद अंबुज गहि बारहिं बारा।हृदयँ समात न प्रेमु अपारा॥
उर कछु प्रथम बासना रही।प्रभु पद प्रीति सरित सो बही॥
अब कृपाल निज भगति पावनी।देहु सदा सिव मन भावनी॥
Rama’s blessings and rajyabhishek of Vibhishana
Lord Rama discusses further strategy with Sugreeva and Vibhishana. Vibhishan advices Him to pray to the Ocean.
This entire episode of Vibhishana’s sharanagati was observed by Ravana’s spies. These spies were released by Lakshmana with the intention that they report the ground reality to Ravana. As planned by Lakshmana, the spies reported the incidents accordingly.
Here’s a revised version of the sentence with improved grammar and flow:
When the spies informed Ravana that Rama had sought advice from Vibhishana, he laughed and concluded that Rama lacked strength and intellect. Following this, he kicked Shuka in anger.
Although Rama prayed to the Ocean, it refused to yield. As a result, Rama decided to dry it up. The lesson here is not to waste time on the following types of individuals:
सठ सन बिनय कुटिल सन प्रीति।सहज कृपन सन सुंदर नीति॥
ममता रत सन ग्यान कहानी।अति लोभी सन बिरति बखानी॥
क्रोधिहि सम कामिहि हरिकथा।ऊसर बीज बएँ फल जथा॥
But as soon as Rama places the arrow on His bow, the Ocean comes forward and offers a suggestion to Him, marking the end of the Sundarkand.
Swamiji discusses the highly controversial statement in the Tulasi Ramayana and provides us with its true perspective.
He explains the falshruti of Sunderkand.
निज भवन गवनेउ सिंधु श्रीरघुपतिहि यह मत भायऊ,यह चरित कलि मल हर जथामति दास तुलसी गायऊ।
सुख भवन संसय समन दवन बिषाद रघुपति गुन गना,तजि सकल आस भरोस गावहि सुनहि संतत सठ मना॥
सकल सुमंगल दायक रघुनायक गुन गान,सादर सुनहिं ते तरहिं भव सिंधु बिना जलजान।
He concludes the talk after giving spiritual significance of Sunderkand in life of Sadhaka.
