tāsu śrāpa hari dīnha pramānā. kautukanidhi kṛpāla bhagavānā..
 

tahāom jalaṃdhara rāvana bhayaū. rana hati rāma parama pada dayaū..
  [1-123-1]

ēka janama kara kārana ēhā. jēhi lāgi rāma dharī naradēhā..
 

prati avatāra kathā prabhu kērī. sunu muni baranī kabinha ghanērī..
  [1-123-2]

nārada śrāpa dīnha ēka bārā. kalapa ēka tēhi lagi avatārā..
 

girijā cakita bhaī suni bānī. nārada biṣnubhagata puni gyāni..
  [1-123-3]

kārana kavana śrāpa muni dīnhā. kā aparādha ramāpati kīnhā..
 

yaha prasaṃga mōhi kahahu purārī. muni mana mōha ācaraja bhārī..
  [1-123-4]


Description

The sportive and gracious Lord accepted her curse. It was this Jalandhara who was reborn as Ravana in this latter Kalpa. Killing him in battle Sri Rama conferred on him the supreme state (final beatitude). This was the reason why Sri Rama assumed a human form in one particular birth. Hark, O Bharadvaja; the story of each birth of the Lord has been sung by poets in diverse ways. On one occasion Narada cursed the Lord; this served as an excuse of His birth in one particular Kalpa." Girija was taken aback to hear these words and said, "Narada is a votary of God Visnu and enlightened soul to o. Wherefore did the sage pronounce a curse? What offence had Laksmi's lord committed against him? Tell me the whole story, O Slayer of the demon Tripura. It is very strange that the sage should have fallen a prey to delusion."
