Chaitra Shuddha Navami, the lunar almanac birthdate of a mighty valorous emperor, known as ShreeRaama, is almost about to get manifested in a few weeks
( Today is PhaalguNa maasa Punarvasu Nakshatram...Hence after 27 stars from today, the upcoming Punarvasu star would be the ShreeRaamaNavami / Jayanthi / Kalyaanam festival celebration...)
Kausalyaa Dasharath's eldest Son is regarded as "Raamo vigrahavaan Dharmaha" and the power of this unparalleled trait known as "Dharmam",
( Dhruyairva janaihi iti dharmam" is the Vyutpatti)
attributed to him, was the only universal force that has helped his younger brother Lakshmana, son of Sumitra Dasharath, to kill the most unscrupulous demon, Meghanaatha, who was hailed as Indrajith for his achievement of defeating Devendra to establish Raavanaasura's supremacy in the heaven as well.
The Dharmaastram shot by Lakshmana reads....
*****
9. धर्मात्मा सत्यसन्धश्च रामो दाशरथिर्यदि।पौरुषेचाप्रतिद्वन्द्वः शरैनं जहि रावणिम्॥
dharmAtmA satyasandhashca rAmo dAsharathiryadi.
paurushhecA.apratidvandvaH sharainaM jahi rAvaNim.. (V.R. VI - 90 - 70)
O my dear arrow! If it is true that Raama the son of Dasaratha has set his mind on virtue, that he always keeps up his promise and is second to none in his prowess, then destroy this Indrajit. (This was the declaration of Lakshmana after a prolonged war with Indrajit just before he discharged the arrow that killed Indrajit.)
*****
After having been exhausted with all the Astra sampada, Lakshmana's mano sankalpam has become a never before heard astram that was rightly named as Dharmaastram.....
The Agni beejam / jeevaaksharam
"Raa" from the well known AshtaakShari Mahaamantram
"OmNamoNaaraayaNaaya....."
and the jeevaaksharam
"ma" from the well known PanchaakShari Mahaamantram
"OmNamahShivaaya...."
was clubbed by sage Vashistha Maharshi to arrive at the most powerful of all the names "Raama"
( I have attached to this post, a poetic prose that heralds the magnanimity of the ShreeRaama naamam as taaraka mantram. One would certainly be astonished to see the various ways ShreeRaama taaraka mantram can be invoked / consumed in order to achieve our respective goals )
As explained by sathguru Shree Chaaganti gaaru, ShreemadRaamaayanam is not just an epic or an itihaasam...
Raamaayanam is a Shaakuna Shaastram...
Raamaayanam is a Dhanurveda Shaastram...
Raamaayanam is a Artha Shaastram...
Raamaayanam is a Raajaneeti Shaastram....
Raamaayanam is a Shabda Shaastram...
and so and so forth.....
I have written multiple articles in my earlier posts on the greatness of ShreemadRaamaayanam.
So, let's now discuss the Raamaayanam as a ShabdaShaastram.....
As explained by sathguru Shree Chaaganti gaaru,
Shabdam and Dhwani are two different entities....
Shabdam refers to the sound energy....
Dhwani refers to the noise entropy....
Even before Raama and his 3 brothers were born in the SooryaVamsham / dynasty, the ShabdaShaastram spoke about it several years ago...
Remember the incident where in king Dasharatha sets out on a casual hunting spree and uses his Shabdaveadi vidya to shot an arrow in the direction of a water stream where in he thought some wild animal is drinking the water. After he went to his arrow's destination, he was in a dismay to see that he has hurted some normal boy who was fetching water for his parents who are blind and confined to a wooden shoulder balance (KaavaDi) being carried by their only son, the boy who was hurted by Dasharatha's arrow shot, known as Sravanakumaara....
His parents who heard the sad news of their only son's demise from Dasharatha's words, wept a lot and cursed the latter saying that he too would weep a lot like they had to and would die in a despair of getting separated from his Son....
Dasharatha understood their agony and returned to his palace.
When that incident happened he had no children and thus he just ignored the poor elderly people's curse....
However, " Shabdamayi " , the aadiparaaShakti amSha that resides in the sound and its various realms would always be intact in its cosmic equivalent in order to manifest itself according to the ShabaShakti embedded in a verse rendered with the imposed Gayatri Pathanam....
It is the same Shabdamayi, that has made Kaikeyi to force Dasharatha to give her boons as promised long ago and asked them accordingly as below....
1. Tomorrow's yuvaraaja paTTaabhishekam is to be done instead to her son Bharata
2. ShreeRaama must leave to the forests wearing naaracheeralu as an ascetic / saadhu and must not return to Ayodhya up until 9+5=14 years ( nava panchacha varshaani ) of their exile.
Dasharatha was simply flabbergasted listening to his wife's ask and was in a complete chaotic state on what to do in such a pathetic situation where in he can neither deny Kaikeyi's asks to get her out of the ShoakaGruham nor can he order his dearest elder son ShreeRaam to leave to forests for 14 years....
( One must note a point, explained by sathguru Shree Chaaganti gaaru, it was not Kaikeyi's fault in asking so. God's have made her to ask such boons in order to achieve the very purpose of ShreeRaamaavataaram.
i.e., The Poulastya Vadha ...)
Again the Shabdamayi has created another situation where in demon Maareecha changes his tone and shouts
"Haa Seetha....Haa Lakshmana....," as planned by Raavanaasura to abduct SeethaDevi...
As per the Shabdha Shaastram,
the word " seetaaraama " has the below mentioned four distinct syllables and their energy realms.....
1. sa kaaram :: SarpaShakti / Kundalinee Shakti
2. ta kaaram :: JeevaShakti
3. ra kaaram :: Agni Shakti
4. ma kaaram :: Vishnu Shakti
Hence the combined form of these 4 form an inseparable pair that together creates a cohesive universal force for everyone's well being....
As explained by sathguru Shree Chaaganti gaaru, Agni the God of Fire, is the junior most celestial force that carries the Swaahaa and Swadhaa kaara Shakti to the various destined cosmic beings as per the Yagnya / Yaaga / Homa / Paitruka karmaacharanam...
And the top most celestial force that governs this entire process of rejuvenating the magnitude of various celestial forces is ShreeMahaaVishnu....
As per the PutraKaameshTi yaagam performed by Dasharatha, Lord ShreeMahaaVishnu's Shakti ( symbolized by 'Ma' ) is blessed to them in the form of Paayasam via the Agni deavata.
Hence the Agni Beejaaksharam + Vishnu Shakti Beejaaksharam = Raa + Ma = Raama gets manifested as their eldest son Raama.....
The innate paratattwa Shakti intrinsic to every human being is represented by their Kundalinee Shakti and
the BhooShakti / Pruthvi Shakti is symbolized by JeevaShakti.
Hence, the AadiParaaShakti / Kundalinee Beejaaksharam + Bhoo Shakti / Jeeva Beejaaksharam = See + ta = Seeta gets manifested as Seeta to JanakaMahaaraaju while ploughing the fields.....
Hence SeetaRaama essentially represents the universal inseparable entities of
Prakruthi / Paratattwam...
Jeevaatma / Paramaatma.....
Shakti / Shivam....
Shivaa / Shiva....
and so on and so forth.....
Hence the moment, SeetaDevi is abducted by Raavanasura,
the entire Raamaayanam i.e.,
raamuni ayanam, would be only to get reunited with SeetaaDevi.....
Whomsoever comes in between them would have to face the unstoppable wrath of Lord ShreeRaama coupled with the catalytic forces of Lakshmana and Hanuma...
Air is the fastest carrier of the sound and thus the NaadaShakti, represented by Hanuma, the VaayuPutra, has requested Lord of Air, Vaayu deva to alter the path of the arrow shot by Lord ShreeRaama so that it hits the Naabhi sthaanam of Raavanasura where in he has captured and binded his JeevaShakti via
"Amruta akaaSha manDala yoga bandhana prakriya..." that is known only to his brother Vibheeshana, which implies unless that space is hit, no other shots on to him anywhere on his body wouldn't really matter...
Outside he has captured and binded the representation of
Vaishwika kundalinee Shaki + Jeeva Shakti = Seetadevi....
Inside he has captured his own body's Kundalinee Shakti + Jeeva Shakti = Poulastya PraaNa Shakti....
Hence ShreeRaama has essentially,
targeted both the internal and external capture of Raavana and granted freedom to both from the clutches of the Kaanchana Lanka's demoic bondage.....
Another incident of Shabdamayi's intervention in ShreemadRaamaayanam,
is in the form of Garudaalwaar, who swoops down all the way from the Vaikuntham to liberate the entire ShreeRaama vaanara sena from the clutches of the Meghanaatha's deadly Naagaastram.....
As explained by sathguru Shree Chaaganti gaaru, Garuda Vihanga Shakti, the Shabdamayi that gets emanated from the Garuda's golden wings is revered as entire Veda Vaangmaya Shakti that has no parallel no matter what in the entire universe....
Hence, even the effects of Naagaastram had to recede the moment Garuda blew the air off of his wings on the entire ShreeRaama vaanara sena.....
In this way, Shabdamayi has been a driving force all through the Raamaayanam so much so that ShreemadRaamaayanam can be considered as a great topic for a thesis on the Ph.D subject of ShabdaShaastram in ShreemadRaamaayanam.... 😊💐🍦🍧🍨🎂🍕
( The 21st verse in the below attached excerpt of "Sankshepa Raamaayanam" blessed by NaaradaMaharshi to Vaalmeeki Maharshi, hails the glory of the ShreemadRaamaayanam and also that of the one who recites it.... )
Yaa devi sarva bhootayshu Vishnu maayeati Shabditaa.....
NamasTasyai NamasTasyai NamasTasyai Namo Namaha....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
ShreeRaamachandraParabrahmanay Namaha...🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
