THE DIVINE WILL

Subhashitham: 029

नाकाले म्रियते जंतुः विद्धः शरशतैरपि ।
कुशकंटकविद्धोऽपि प्राप्तकालो न जीवति ॥

na akAle mriyate jantuH viddhiH shara shatairapi ।

kusha kaNTakaviddho api prApta kAlo na jIvati ॥

When fate is favourable, even if one throws a hundred arrows at you – nothing happens to you. However, when it is unfavourable , even a blade of grass can kill you.

जन्म ब्रह्मकुले अग्रजो धनपति: य: कुम्भकर्णाग्रज:

सूनुर् वासवजित्त् स्वयं दशशिरा: दोर्दण्डका विंशति: I

अस्त्रं कामगमं विमानमजयं मध्येसमुद्रीं पुरी

सर्वं निष्फलमेतदेव नियतं दैवं परम् दुर्जयं  II

Janma brahma kule agrajo dhanapathi: ya: kumbakarnaagraja:

Sunur vaasavajith svayam dasasiraa: dhordankaa vimsati I

Astram kaamagamam vimaanamajayam madye samudreem puree

Sarvam nishpalam ethadeva niyatam Daivam param durjayam II

Born in the lineage of Brahma ,The lord of wealth- Kubera  the elder brother,  Powerful Kumbakarna is the younger brother , Son is Indrajit (who defeated Indra in war) ,  Himself blessed with ten heads and twenty powerful shoulders , bestowed also with arrows which can complete their mission unfailingly, sheltered in a well protected fortress surrounded by sea , in spite of all these Ravana faced total annihilation. Nothing can, therefore, stand before the DIVINE WILL.

रामे  राज्यं पितुरभिमतं संमतं च प्रजानां

माता वव्रे तदिह भरते सत्यवादी ददौ च  I

चिन्ततित: समजनि तदा पदुकाग्रयाभिषेको

दुर्विज्ञानस्व हृदय महो दैवमत्र प्रमाणं  II Paduka sahasram-826

Dasaratha,father of Rama wanted the kingdom should go to Rama , the public also concurred. But Kaikeyi wished  that her son Bharatha should rule the country,and asked for the boon; Dasaratha , having to honour his word, agreed for the boon. But something totally unexpected happened and coronation was done to Rama’s Padukas . Therefore , we see that ultimately in everything it is god’s will that prevails.
