# Kishkindha Kand · Doha 29

**चौ०** 
> जो नाघइ सत जोजन सागर। करइ सो राम काज मति आगर॥  
> मोहि बिलोकि धरहु मन धीरा। राम कृपाँ कस भयउ सरीरा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> पापिउ जा कर नाम सुमिरहीं। अति अपार भवसागर तरहीं॥  
> तासु दूत तुम्ह तजि कदराई। राम हृदयँ धरि करहु उपाई॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> अस कहि गरुड़ गीध जब गयऊ। तिन्ह कें मन अति बिसमय भयऊ॥  
> निज निज बल सब काहूँ भाषा। पार जाइ कर संसय राखा॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> जरठ भयउँ अब कहइ रिछेसा। नहिं तन रहा प्रथम बल लेसा॥  
> जबहिं त्रिबिक्रम भए खरारी। तब मैं तरुन रहेउँ बल भारी॥४॥

Meaning: “He who can leap over the ocean having a width of eight hundred miles and is a repository of intelligence will be able to do Śrī Rāma’s task. Look at me and take courage in your heart. See how rejuvenated I feel in body (with a new pair of wings) by Śrī Rāma’s grace. (1)

“Even sinners who invoke Śrī Rāma’s Name are able to cross the vast and boundless ocean of mundane existence. You, therefore, who are His emissaries, should never lose nerve, but be up and doing with the image of Śrī Rāma enshrined in your heart.” (2)

So saying, O Garuḍa ! continues Kākabhuśuṇḍi, the vulture departed, leaving them much amazed at heart. Now each one of the monkeys talked of his own strength, but doubted his ability to leap across. (3)

Said Jāmbavān, the king of bears, “I am now too old and not even a fraction of my former strength is left in my body. When Śrī Rāma, the Slayer of the demon Khara, assumed the form of Trivikrama (the Lord with three strides, Lord Vāmana), I was young and possessed great strength. (4)

**दो०** 
> बलि बाँधत प्रभु बाढ़ेउ सो तनु बरनि न जाइ।  
> उभय घरी महँ दीन्हीं सात प्रदच्छिन धाइ॥२९॥

Meaning: “At the time of taking Bali captive the Lord grew to an enormous and indescribable size. Yet in less than an hour I devoutly ran clockwise around Him as many as seven times.”(29)
