Krishna Das Ji Maharaj explains Shri Ram's unwavering compassion
PRAYAGRAJ [Maha Media]: Under the divine guidance of Ved Vidya Martand Brahmachari Girish Ji, Vedic Pandits performed a total of 1,331 Paaths and Havans of the Rudrashtadhyayi during the Maha Kumbh 2025 at Teerth Raj Prayagraj on Thursday. To promote world welfare and peace, various programs have been organized at the Maharishi Ashram located on the banks of the Sangam in Arail, Prayagraj.
Alongside this event, the Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah program commenced with some melodious recitations of shloka creating a serene atmosphere. The renowned Katha Vyas, Acharya Shri Krishnadas Ji Maharaj initiated the discourse with a heartfelt tribute to Lord Ram. Maharaj Ji said that Lord Ram is the supreme entity that resides in every atom of this Universe. Lord Ram is the door to absolute salvation and by attaining whom all sins are resolved.
Krishnadas Ji Maharaj opened today's story with the assertion that no one embodies kindness quite like Shri Ram. He referred to a poignant scene from the epic Ramayana, as portrayed by Goswami Tulsidas, where Ram was traveling with the sage Rishi Vishwamitra. During their journey, they encountered Tadka, a formidable demoness who posed a threat to their mission. In a moment of decisive courage, Lord Ram shot Tadka with a single arrow, not only defeating her but also liberating her from the curse placed upon her by Rishi Agastya. This act of compassion illustrates how Lord Ram granted not just freedom but also salvation, showcasing his divine mercy.
Lord Ram holds his devotees in high regard. For example, the monkeys would often sit at the top of the trees while Ram would sit below. Occasionally, the excrement from the monkeys would fall on him, but he did not mind at all. To Lord Ram, once he has made room for someone in his heart, he does not dwell on their flaws. It is human nature to notice faults and mistakes, but Shri Ram welcomed all the monkeys as friends without judgment.
In another enlightening episode, Krishnadas Ji Maharaj recounted how, despite the initial refusal from Sugreev, the monkey king, Lord Ram extended his acceptance to Vibhishan, Ravana's brother. Sugreev expressed skepticism about Vibhishan’s loyalty, but Lord Ram countered his concerns. He stated, "Anyone who approaches me in friendship cannot be forsaken." Recognizing that everyone has their faults, Ram affirmed that it is the mark of a virtuous person to offer shelter and compassion to those who may have erred. Thus, he resolved to embrace Vibhishan, underscoring the importance of mercy and the moral obligation to support those seeking refuge. This act epitomizes Lord Ram’s unwavering commitment to righteousness and friendship, showcasing the ideals he lives by.
In the evening, a delightful cultural program was held by Maharishi Vidya Mandir, Hardoi, at Maharishi Ashram. The event began with a welcome song, followed by a Ganesh Vandana. Next, a yoga asana demonstration accompanied by melodious music was presented.
The highlight of the evening was an amazing dance performance set to the song "Shubh Din Aayo," which showcased the grace of Goddess Durga and captivated the audience. The students of MVM also performed beautiful bhajans, including "Achyutam Keshavam Krishna Damodaram" and "Narayan Mil Jaayenge," which enchanted everyone present. A student delivered a recitation of the Geeta Path. The cultural program concluded with a vibrant dance performance dedicated to the glory and peace of Lord Shiva, titled "Har Har Shankar." Many prestigious guests attended the program and highly appreciated the organization's efforts.
The Shri Ram Kathamrit Pravah will continue until February 4. All the events and programs are broadcast live on Ramraj TV. The live telecast is also available on Ramraj TV's YouTube and Facebook channels.
