TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
This is an immortal chaupai of Shri RamCharitManasji. Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that without Satsang (Religious discourse), in any case, conscience is not awakened. What Goswamiji says next is even more important. Goswamiji says that one who is not blessed by GOD does not get the fortune and benefit of Satsang. Whoever has not earned the grace of GOD in life, such an unfortunate man does not like Satsang. In Kaliyug (modern era), it is often seen that the creature likes fun and pleasures, tours and travels but has no interest in Satsang. We must assume that such a creature is not in the graceful sight of GOD. Such a creature should try to earn the grace of GOD in life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Without attaining the grace of GOD, Satsang is not possible in life.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
In this verse, Goswami Shri Tulsidasji has given a very beautiful simile. He says that if you put a parrot or starling in the house of a monk or devotee, then by staying in a virtuous and Godly environment they start speaking the name of GOD. At the same time if another parrot or starling is left in the house of an unrighteous person, then they learn to abuse countlessly. The importance of company in the life of a seeker can be understood from this example. Therefore, we should accompany only those people and those places in life where there is discussion, chanting, singing hymn and worship of GOD takes place.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We should keep the company of those people and places where devotional activities for GOD take place.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
Goswami Shri Tulsidasji gives great emphasis to escape from bad company and stay in good company. He says that the smoke is called soot because of the bad company and no one touches it because it pollutes anyone who touches it. But when the same smoke gets in good company, it becomes a beautiful ink and is used to write Holy Texts. With a good company, it becomes so pious that it is used to write the praise of GOD. Therefore, the creature should only accompany the devotees in life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must always stay in the companionship of a devotee and stay away from a non-devotee.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
Goswami Shri Tulsidasji shows his humility in this verse. GOD is very fond of sense of humility. Hearing the humble word, GOD immediately gets pleased. Goswamiji says that he wants to describe the virtues of GOD but he does not have the capability because his intellect is small and the character of GOD is unfathomable which no one can describe. Therefore, he is not able to find any solution that he will be able to do. Goswamiji says that he is poor by wisdom but his desire to praise GOD is like a king.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- To describe the virtues of GOD is impossible for anyone because they are unfathomable.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that his creation is devoid of all virtues, it just has one world-famous quality that it has the praise of GOD Shree Ramji. The benevolent name and qualities of GOD Shree Ramji are extremely sacred and are the essence of Shri Vedaji and Shri Puranas. The name of GOD Shree Ramji is the dwelling of welfare and destroyer of inauspiciousness. The name of GOD Shree Ramji is so valuable that GOD Shree Mahadevji keeps chanting it together with GODDESS Bhagwati Parvati Mata.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The chanting of the name of GOD leads to auspiciousness and welfare in life.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that even if there is a fault in his creation, it is sacred because it sings the praise of GOD. On the contrary, if there is a unique poem composed by a good poet and if it does not contain the praise of GOD, then it does not have any beauty at all. It is just like a very beautiful ornamented woman but if she is without clothes then she does not have the grace. The gist of this chaupai is that any poem or writing which does not have the praise of GOD is empty and does not have any beauty at all.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The text or writing which does not sing the praise of GOD is worthless.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji explains the glory of praising GOD in this verse. He says that if there is a poem or poetry composed by a bad poet, devoid of all the qualities of the poetic juices, but it sings the praise of the name and fame GOD, then wise people listen and narrate it respectfully. Goswamiji says that saints and devotees are like bumblebees who are ready to accept the praise of the qualities of GOD from anywhere. The praise of GOD is always pleasing to the hearts of saints and devotees.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The composition which sings the praise of GOD is only worthy of listening.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that the narration of GOD Shree Ramji composed by him is going to benefit the people who will hear and narrate it. There is no doubt that the praise of GOD Shree Ramji does certain welfare of the creature. The second thing which Goswamiji says is that the narration of GOD Shree Ramji defeats the sins of Kaliyug (modern era). If we want to be saved from the sins of Kaliyug, then the only means is to sing the praise of GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- When we sing the praise of GOD we become devoid of our sins.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that when a poet remembers GOD with devotion, then Bhagwati Saraswati Mata rushes to him leaving Brahmalok to grace him as soon as the poet remembers Her. The exhaustion on the arrival of Mata does not go away with billions of measures without bathing Her in the poetic form lake or rendered poem written in praise of GOD. Bhagwati Saraswati Mata showers Her grace completely on the poet who sings the praise of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH -
Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that the poet, who sings the praise of GOD, Bhagwati Saraswati Mata, without being called, comes running to bestow Her grace on that poet. But on the contrary, the poet who praises the worldly man and does not sing the praise of GOD, Bhagwati Saraswati Mata arrives and regrets why She had come. The principle is clear that Bhagwati Saraswati Mata only loves the praise of GOD and She gives Her full grace to the poet or creator who praises GOD in his text or poetry.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The GODDESS of knowledge bestows Her grace on one who praises GOD in his text or poetry.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that he is neither a poet nor clever and his intellect is also enamored in the world. Still, he is making little efforts to sing the immense character of GOD Shree Ramji. GOD Shree Mahadevji, GOD Shree Brahmaji, Bhagwati Saraswati Mata, GOD Shri Sheshji, all Holy Scriptures, Shri Vedji and Shri Puranas also find themselves unable to praise GOD Shree Ramji and calm down saying Neti-Neti (infinite).
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that it is not possible for anyone to completely describe the glory of GOD. Nevertheless, we should praise GOD as much as our intellect can. This is because the effect of the praise of GOD is very unique and divine. Various Scriptures describe this as a principle that even a little praise and hymn of GOD leads the creature to cross this worldly ocean easily.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- When we sing the glory and praise of GOD it leads us to cross the worldly ocean easily.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji says that GOD, despite being unborn, assumes a body for His devotees and performs many types of beautiful Holy pastimes. These Holy pastimes are done only for the benefit of the devotees so that the devotees can attain salvation by contemplating and singing them.

Goswami Shri Tulsidasji greets GOD Shree Mahadevji and Bhagwati Parvati Mata before writing his composition. Goswamiji sees GOD and Mata as his master and parent. He describes GOD and Mata as the friend of the downtrodden and donors of the daily narration of Katha. Then what Goswamiji says is amazing. He describes the relationship between GOD Shree Mahadevji and GOD Shree Ramji which cannot be described more beautifully than this. Goswamiji says that GOD Shree Mahadevji is the sevak of GOD Shree Ramji, also the swami and sakha of GOD Shree Ramji. When GOD Shree Ramji established Shree Rameswaramji before the war of Lanka and GOD Shree Ramji was asked about its meaning, then He said that "Rameshwar means the GOD of Ram". Then when GOD Shree Mahadevji was asked, He said "Rameshwar means whose GOD is Ram". In this way, both are sevak of each other and also swami of each other. Such a wonderful relationship exists between GOD Shree Mahadevji and GOD Shree Ramji.

Goswamiji says that no matter how the name of GOD is chanted in any way, it will lead to our ultimate welfare because the name of GOD is basically inclined for our ultimate welfare. Goswamiji even says that no matter how the name of GOD is chanted with a feeling of love, or with bad enmity, or with anger or with laziness, it will lead to our utmost auspiciousness and welfare. Many such characters will be found in history who chanted the name of GOD with enmity, anger, laziness and they attained salvation. Kans, Ravan, Shishupal are live examples of this.
