# Aranya Kand · Doha 45

**चौ०** 
> सुनि रघुपति के बचन सुहाए। मुनि तन पुलक नयन भरि आए॥  
> कहहु कवन प्रभु कै असि रीती। सेवक पर ममता अरु प्रीती॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> जे न भजहिं अस प्रभु भ्रम त्यागी। ग्यान रंक नर मंद अभागी॥  
> पुनि सादर बोले मुनि नारद। सुनहु राम बिग्यान बिसारद॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> संतन्ह के लच्छन रघुबीरा। कहहु नाथ भव भंजन भीरा॥  
> सुनु मुनि संतन्ह के गुन कहऊँ। जिन्ह ते मैं उन्ह कें बस रहऊँ॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> षट बिकार जित अनघ अकामा। अचल अकिंचन सुचि सुखधामा॥  
> अमित बोध अनीह मितभोगी। सत्यसार कबि कोबिद जोगी॥४॥

**चौ०** 
> सावधान मानद मदहीना। धीर धर्म गति परम प्रबीना॥५॥

Meaning: As the sage listened to the delightful discourse of Śrī Raghunātha, a thrill ran through his body and his eyes were filled with tears. He said to himself, “Tell me, is there any other master whose wont it is to show such attachment and fondness for his servants? (1)

“Men who do not worship such a lord, shaking off all delusion, are bankrupt of wisdom, dull-witted and wretched.” The sage Nārada again reverentially spoke to the Lord, “Listen, O Rāma, who are well-versed in sacred lore, (2)

“tell me, my lord Raghuvīra, the distinguishing marks of saints, O dispeller of the fear of transmigration.” “I tell you, dear sage, the qualities of saints, by virtue of which they (lovingly) hold Me in their sway. (3)

“They are masters of the six passions (lust, anger, greed, infatuation, pride and jealousy), sinless, disinterested, firm (steadfast), without any possession, pure (both within and without), full of bliss, of boundless wisdom, desireless, moderate in diet, truthful, inspired, learned and united with God. (4)

“Circumspect, bestowing honour on others, free from pride, strong-minded and highly conversant with the course of Dharma (righteousness). (5)

**दो०** 
> गुनागार संसार दुख रहित बिगत संदेह।  
> तजि मम चरन सरोज प्रिय तिन्ह कहुँ देह न गेह॥४५॥

Meaning: “They are abodes of virtue, above the afflictions of the world and free from doubt. Nothing besides My lotus feet is dear to them, not even their body, nor their home. (45)
