The Promise

"Do not be scared any more, all of you Swamis of devtas and munis," said the voice from the heavens. "I will, take human form for you. In the veneered house of the sun ( Suryavansh) I will take birth along with my atoms. I had promised a boon, to Kashyap and Aditi, for their immense tap. They, in the form of Dashrath and Kaushilya, have been born as king and queen, of the human race, in Ayodhya. In their house, I will be the oldest of the four sons and an alter ego will be born with me too. I will bear the burden of the planet earth, oh great ones! so become fearless."

The voice of Brahm (God) put everyone at ease, and showing relief on their faces, the devtas went home. Brahma reassured the earth. She was now convinced that God would relieve her of her burden. Then, Brahma asked the devtas to prepare to take the form of monkeys, and be born on earth, to worship the Lord.

The devtas wasted no time, soon they changed their form into monkeys and came down to earth.They had a lot of strength and valour. Mountains, rocks and their nails were their only weapons. With calm minds, the monkeys (devtas in human form) spread out in jungles and mountains with small forces, and started waiting for God to appear.

Now, Shivji says to Parvati he will continue with the other story that was left in the middle.

Once upon a time, Ayodhya was ruled by the renowned king Dashrath who was the head of the Raghukul (clan). He was a champion of religion,very talented and wise. He was devoted to that God, who held the famous Sharang muni's bow and arrow. His mind was always at the feet of the Lord. His queens Kaushilya and the others were of good character and totally devoted to him and Sri Hari.

We see, that this God is a very benevolent God. He comes to our aid whenever we ask. There is no doubt in my mind that, it has happened to us several times. So now we know, that all we need to do is holler and He will be there. Then we will have Ram Rajya. JAI HO!
