Description
Summary:This short work (bearing the title: “Rāma!” [She] constantly repeats two syllables. A very short Kalyāṇa elucidation of one among Śiva’s hymns in the Uttarakāṇḍa of the Rāmacaritamānasa) consists in an extremely concise as well as newly composed Sanskrit commentary on a Śiva’s hymn chanted to Rāma, once he was back to Ayodhyā at the end of the war against Rāvaṇa. These ten avadhī-verses hosted in the Uttarakāṇḍa (7.13.1-10) of Tulasī Dāsa’s Rāmacaritamānasa extol Rāma as the Supreme Being, the ultimate reservoir of all devotions, thoughts and acts.
