Then, bearing the natural vision, Rama, with great joy, approached Sita, the virtuous one, and bowed to her with devotion and affection. ||4||
Narayana, with a gentle soul, also joined his hands in salutation and greeted Sita, following the footsteps of Padmanabha. ||42||
"You are blessed, O Bhagavati! You are worthy of worship, the bearer of excellent conduct. You are like the earth, holding the Meru, the mountain of virtue. Therefore, you are worthy of our worship." ||43||
"You have first obtained the supreme nectar of the Jina's words, by which you will cross the ocean of samsara." ||44||
"May this be the path for all other virtuous women, with beautiful minds, praised in both worlds." ||45||
"You have brought your soul, your family, and the world under your control by practicing this kind of kriyayoga, with a pure heart." ||46||
"Whatever we have done, good or bad, should be forgiven, for those who are attached to the state of samsara stumble at every step." ||47||
"O Peaceful One! O Mindful One! By being devoted to the Jina's teachings, you have filled my heart with immense joy, even though I was filled with sorrow." ||48||
Thus praising Sita, Rama and Lakshmana, with joyful hearts, proceeded towards the city, with Lavana and Ankusha leading the way. ||49||
The Vidhyadhara kings, filled with immense joy, were moving ahead, their bodies trembling with wonder. ||50||
In the midst of thousands of kings, the two handsome heroes, surrounded by gods like Indra, entered the city. ||51||
Before them, queens, riding on various vehicles, restless and accompanied by their retinues, were following the proper protocol. ||52||
Seeing Rama entering, the women, perched on the towers of the palace, were engaged in conversation, filled with various emotions. ||53||
"This is Sri Baladeva, the proud one, devoted to purity. He has abandoned his beloved, even though he is a scholar." ||54||
"This is a beautiful act done by this one, born in a pure lineage, for the sake of the men, who are like the pillars of the world." ||55||
Who could have stopped Sri Rama from becoming free from suffering in any way? ||40||
