Two monks were seen. The monks were wandering in the sky, their bodies were filled with a group of radiance, they were very beautiful, they were endowed with the three knowledges of Mati, Shruta, and Avadhi, they were the holders of the great vows, they were endowed with supreme penance, their minds were devoid of evil desires, they had fasted for a month, they were brave and courageous, they were endowed with virtues, they were the holders of auspicious conduct, they provided joy to the eyes like the moon and Mercury, and they were endowed with the prescribed conduct. ||13 - 16|| Thereafter, Sita, whose eyes were shining with the burden of joy and whose body was trembling with excitement, said to Rama, "O best of men! Look, look, these Digambar monks, whose bodies are becoming thin due to penance and who seem extremely tired." ||17-18|| Rama, in confusion, said, "My dear! O virtuous one! O learned one! O beautiful one! O ornament of virtues! Where did you see the pair of Nirgranth monks? Where did you see them?" ||19|| "That pair, whose sight, O beautiful one, destroys the long-accumulated sins of the devotees in an instant." ||20|| Upon Rama saying this, Sita said in confusion, "These are they, these are they." At that time, Rama was filled with some anxiety. ||21|| Thereafter, seeing the two monks whose gaze was fixed on the earth, whose walk was extremely peaceful, and whose bodies were devoid of carelessness, the couple, Rama and Sita, stood up, went forward, praised them, and bowed to them, thus making them like mountains for the spring of the river of merit. ||22-23|| Sita, whose body was pure and who was endowed with great faith, served food to the two monks along with her husband. ||24|| That food was made from fresh and beautiful ghee, milk, and other products made from them, such as mawa, produced from cows and buffaloes born in the forest. ||25|| It was made from dates, figs, mangoes, coconuts, juicy berries, and fruits like bhilma. ||26|| Thus, the monks performed their Parana with various types of food items endowed with scriptural purity.
