69th & 70th Dohas of Uttar Kand

Chaupai:

dekhi carita ati nara anusåri, bhayau hrdaya° mama samsaya bhåri |

soi bhrama aba hita kari mai månå, kinha anugraha krpånidhånå ||1||

jo ati åtapa byåkula hoi, taru chåyå sukha jånai soi |

jau° nahi hota moha ati mohi, milateu° tåta kavana bidhi tohi ||2||

sunateu°kimi hari kathå suhåi, ati bicitra bahu bidhi tumha i |

nigamågama puråna mata ehå, kahahi siddha muni nahi samdehå ||3||

samta bisuddha milahi pari tehi, citavahi råma krpå kari jehi |

råma krpå° tava darasana bhayau, tava prasåda saba samsaya gayau ||4||



The Joy of A Shady Tree

Seeing His ways closely resembling those of a human being in this mundane world, a nagging doubt surfaced in my soul. Now I consider that misapprehension to be a blessing and feel that the repository of mercy had done a great favour to me. For only he who is extremely distressed by the scorching sun can know the joy of a shady tree. If I had not been affected by absolute delusion, how could I have possibly met you?



Garuda's Doubt is Dispelled

And how could I have listened to such a charming and wonderful story of Lord Hari, which you have just sung in various ways. The Vedas, Tantras and the Puranas are of the same opinion, the siddhas and sages also endorse the same fact:There is no doubt that only those people can meet truly genuine saints, whom Lord Rama favourably looks upon. By the grace of Lord Rama I have been blessed by your sight and my doubt has been dispelled by your blessings.


Doha:

suni bihamgapati båni sahita binaya anuråga |

pulaka gåta locana sajala mana haraseu ati kåga ||69(A)||

srotå sumati susila suci kathå rasika hari dåsa |

påi umå ati gopyamapi sajjana karahi prakåsa ||69(B)||



Kakbhusundi is Thrilled

On hearing Garuda's humble and affectionate speech, Kakbhusundi was ecstatic with every fibre of his body standing erect and tears rushing to his eyes. O Uma! (continues Lord Shiva,) saints reveal even those secrets which are extremely mysterious(not worth revealing before everyone) when they find a listener who has a lovely intellect, is virtuous and pious,is fond of Lord Råma's story and a devotee of Lord Hari.(69 A-B)


Chaupai:

boleu kakabhasumda bahori, nabhaga nåtha para priti na thori |

saba bidhi nåtha pujya tumha mere, krpåpåtra raghunåyaka kere ||1||

tumhahi na samsaya moha na måyå, mo para nåtha kinhi tumha dåyå |

pathai moha misa khagapati tohi, raghupati ° dinhi baRåi mohi ||2||

tumha nija moha kahi khagasåi, so nahi kachu åcaraja gosåi° |

nårada bhava biramci sanakådi, je muninåyaka åtamabådi ||3||

moha na amdha kinha kehi kehi, ko jaga kåma nacåva na jehi |

trsnå° kehi na kinha bauråhå, kehi kara hrdaya krodha nahi dåhå ||4||


Lord Rama Sends Garuda to Kakbhusundi

Then answered Kåkabhusundi who was not just a bit fond of pakshiraja (was very fond of):O Nath! You are worthy of my worship in every possible way and a recipient of Lord Rama's grace. You have neither doubt nor delusion nor illusion. You have been very kind to me, O Pakshiraja! By sending you to me on the pretext of delusion, Lord Raghunathji has conferred a great honour on me. O Svami pakshiraja! In that delusion of yours of which you have told me, O Lord, there is nothing peculiar.


Sage Narada Blinded by Delusion

Sage Narada, Bhava (Lord Shiva), Viranci (the Creator),Sanaka and the other great sages, who know the essential nature of the Spirit, which of these have not been blinded by delusion?(as to the supposed reality of the world) Again who is there in this in this material world whom lust has not made a puppet of? Who has not been intoxicated by the desire for enjoyment and whose heart has not been inflamed by anger?


Doha:

gyåni tåpasa sura kabi kobida guna ågåra |

kehi kai lobha bidambanå kinhi na ehi samsåra ||70(A)||

srimada bakra na kinha kehi prabhutå badhira na kåhi |

mrgalocani ke naina sara ko asa låga na jåhi ||70(B)||




The Delusion of Lord Vishnu

Which sage, ascetic, hero, poet, learned or virtuous man in this world, greed has not mocked? Again, whom has the infatuation of Lakshmi (goddess of wealth) not perverted? Who has not been deafened by the lust for supremacy? Which person has not been smitten by the arrow-like glances of a fawn-eyed young woman?
