Speech!


After being coronated, Vibhishana sought presence of Rām. He then offered all the auspicious objects to Rām & Laxman. It was accepted by Rām with a sole desire to show gratefulness to Vibhishana


Rām then said to Hanumān, who was standing in humility with his hands joined in salutation-O benevolent one! Taking permission from great Vibhishana, enter the city of Lankā & inform about welfare to Sitā. You are proficient in speech & thus in a salutary disposition inform Sitā that myself together with Laxman & Sugriva are well & that the demon Rāvan has been killed in battle


O Hanumān! The master of Vānaras! Make clear this favorite news to Sitā, you ought to return taking back her message for us


Thus, directed by Rām, Hanumān the son of wind god, entered the city of Lankā, being respectfully received by the demons. He asked permission from Vibhishana & getting approval entered Ashoka grove as per the prevailing regulations. He saw Sitā at the foot of the tree, bereft of freshness, looking joyless like a frightened cow & surrounded by she demons. Approaching her humbly & offering salutation to her by bending his head, he stood there silently


Even after seeing the mighty Hanumān, Sitā was silent. She then reflected & recollected about him & rejoiced. Seeing her cool face, Hanumān narrated the entire message of Rām to her. O Sitā! Rām is well, together with Sugriva & Laxman, along with Vibhishana as his supporter and collectively with the Vānara army. O divine lady! Having destroyed his enemy, Rām the annihilator of his adversaries, accomplished his object & is informing you about his welfare


Rām & Laxman with the support of Vibhishana & Vānaras has killed the valiant Rāvan. I’m telling you this pleasant news & eulogizing you as you’re the knower of righteousness. Rām has achieved this great victory in battle because of your power. Now you please be free from grief & be comfortable


Whenever we speak to others, how we can communicate to be effective. This can be done by appealing to both their head & their heart. When others deliberate on what we say, the assimilate the message else it has limited value


Austerity of speech consists of speaking truthfully & beneficially & avoiding speech that offends. It should be spoken as per the scriptural guidelines. One should not speak in such a way as to agitate the minds of others. Of course, when a teacher speaks, he can speak the truth for the instruction of his students, but such a teacher should not speak to others who are not his students if he will agitate their minds. This is penance as far as talking is concerned


Besides that, one should not talk nonsense. When speaking in spiritual circles, one's statements must be upheld by scriptures. One should at once quote from scriptural authority to back up what he is saying. Also such talk should be very pleasurable to ear. By such discussions, one may derive highest benefit and elevate human society, says Srila Prabhupada

  Never Fall down!   Arjun released an Agni weapon that brightly lit up entire sky. Karna invoked a Varuna weapon that quenched the fire by creating clouds with a Vayavya weapon & then released a favourite weapon of Indra that made thousands of arrows issues forth from his G ā ndiva bow   While being pierced all over, Karna countered Aindra weapon with a Bh ārgava weapon & proceeded to kill many of the foremost Pāncāla warriors. Seeing this, Bhima’s anger blazed up like fire. He chastised his brother by saying: O Arjun, how can you allow these great warriors to be killed within your very sight? Please remember how Karna had insulted Draupadi? Give up your indifference & kill him without delay!   Sri Krsna said: Dear Arjun, you must exert your full prowess now, if need be, you can take help from my Sudarshan Cakra!   After momentarily considering the purpose of his appearance in this world, Arjun replied: Lord, with your permission as ...

  Make or break!   When Salya agreed to drive Karna’s chariot only on condition that he must be allowed to speak freely whatever he likes, Duryodhana and Karna readily agreed & thus a contract was made. Duryodhana flattered Salya by comparing him to Lord Brahmā, who formerly became Shiva’s charioteer at the time of destroying Tripura   Duryodhana concluded his long talk by saying: Dear Salya, Parasurāma delivered the entire science of weapons to Karna. Therefore, we must intelligently conclude that Karna cannot really be a sutā’s son. He must be the offspring of a demigod born in a Kshatriya family & then abandoned at infancy. Otherwise, why would Parasurāma agreed to instruct him in the complete use of weapons?   Salya replied: I have heard on numerous occasions the story of how Lord Brahmā became Lord Siva’s charioteer. You should not place so much faith in your plans, because even if Arjun is killed, Sri Krsna will exterminate the entire Kaurav...

Grudge-The heaviest thing to hold! Asvattāma hurriedly yoked horses to his chariot & set out, as Krpa & Krtvarma anxiously followed him. He soon arrived at Pāndava camp & saw a gigantic being with enormous head with flames emanating from his eyes, nose, ear & mouth   Asvattāma fearlessly attacked that awesome being with his celestial weapons but failed in all his attempt. He thought to himself: Krpa had warned me that persons who don’t listen to their elders must lament later. The frustration of my attempt must be due to its inherently sinful nature. I wonder who is this astonishing being that has defeated me. Obviously further exertion on my part will be useless until my destiny is favourable. Let me now take shelter of my worshipful Lord Siva & seek his guidance   Asvattāma got down from his chariot & fervently prayed to Lord Siva offering his body, mind & soul. Lord Siva personally appeared & smilingly said: Dear Asvattāma, there is...
