# Lanka Kand · Doha 112

**चौ०** 
> तेहि अवसर दसरथ तहँ आए। तनय बिलोकि नयन जल छाए॥  
> अनुज सहित प्रभु बंदन कीन्हा। आसिरबाद पिताँ तब दीन्हा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> तात सकल तव पुन्य प्रभाऊ। जीत्यों अजय निसाचर राऊ॥  
> सुनि सुत बचन प्रीति अति बाढ़ी। नयन सलिल रोमावलि ठाढ़ी॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> रघुपति प्रथम प्रेम अनुमाना। चितइ पितहि दीन्हेउ दृढ़ ग्याना॥  
> ताते उमा मोच्छ नहिं पायो। दसरथ भेद भगति मन लायो॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> सगुनोपासक मोच्छ न लेहीं। तिन्ह कहुँ राम भगति निज देहीं॥  
> बार बार करि प्रभुहि प्रनामा। दसरथ हरषि गए सुरधामा॥४॥

Meaning: That very moment King Daśaratha appeared on the scene (in his celestial form); his eyes were flooded with tears as he beheld his son (Śrī Rāma). The Lord and His younger brother Lakṣmaṇa made obeisance to him and the father gave them his blessing. (1)

“Dear father, it was all due to your religious merit that I conquered the invincible demon king.” Daśaratha was overwhelmed with emotion when he heard his son’s words; tears rushed to his eyes again and the hair on his body stood erect. (2)

Śrī Raghunātha understood that His father bore the same affection for Him as he did before; He, therefore, looked at His father and bestowed on him pure wisdom. Umā, (continues Lord Śiva,) Daśaratha did not attain final beatitude for the simple reason that he had set his heart on Devotion while maintaining his separate identity. (3)

Worshippers of God in His embodied form spurn final beatitude: to them Śrī Rāma vouchsafes devotion to His own person. Having prostrated himself before the Lord again and again, Daśaratha joyfully returned to his abode in heaven. (4)

**दो०** 
> अनुज जानकी सहित प्रभु कुसल कोसलाधीस।  
> सोभा देखि हरषि मन अस्तुति कर सुर ईस॥११२॥

Meaning: Perceiving the Almighty Lord of Kosala safe and sound with His younger brother, Lakṣmaṇa, and Jānakī, and beholding their beauty, Indra (the Lord of the celestials) began extolling Him with a cheerful heart: (112)
