“Tell me in detail, my master, the story whereby my overwhelming perplexity may be overcome.” YŒjÛavalkya smilingly said, “The glory of the Lord of Raghus is already known to you. You are a devotee of RŒma in thought, word and deed; I have come to know your ingenuity. You wish to hear an account of the hidden virtues of RŒma; that is why you have questioned me as if you were quite ignorant. Listen, then, with devout attention, my child, while I narrate the beautiful story of RŒma. Appalling ignorance is the gigantic demon MahiƒŒsura (so-called because he was endowed with the form of a buffalo); while the narrative of RŒma is the dread KŒlikŒ * (who made short work of the demon). The story of RŒma is like the moonbeams that are drunk in by Cakora bird in the form of saints. A similar doubt was expressed by no less a personage than BhavŒn¶ (Goddess PŒrvat¶), and the great God Ýiva then expounded the matter in detail”. (1—4)
