Listen to the conduct of the devotee of Lord Hari who says that – (a) one should never boast that “I performed prayers and penances”; further, (b) one should not speak so by becoming cunning; (c) one should not roam about from place to place (exhibiting talents) with the intention that there should be no one equal to self; and (d) one should not, by becoming fickle minded, ever be bewildered by (encumbrances like) wife and children. 2. Listen to the conduct of the devotee of Lord Hari who says that – (a) one should not consider the celebration (as seen in the) Ocean of Worldly Existence to be real; further, (b) one should not make differentiation so as ‘Lord Siva’ and ‘Lord Vishnu’; (c) one should not nourish the stomach by telling untruths that only he himself is the most capable person in the World; and (d) one should not forget the Lotus Feet of Lord Sri Rama - Consort of Sita - held by Anjaneya – mind-born of Wind God. 3. Listen to the conduct of the devotee of Lord Hari who says that – (a) one should not have qualities of passion and inertia; furthermore, (b) one should not say that (the grace of the Lord) did not come of its own; (c) one’s mind should not give up till the path of Kingly Knowledge and Kingly Secret is firmly established; (d) one should not forget the Lord Sri Rama who is the crown jewel of all Kings and who is the (dearest) friend of this Thyagaraja. |
