Kathin kal mal kos dharm na
Soratha 6 (b) · Aranya Kand
Soratha Text
कठिन काल मल कोस धर्म न ग्यान न जोग जप। परिहरि सकल भरोस रामहि भजहिं ते चतुर नर॥ ६ (ख) ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
kaṭhina kāla mala kosa dharma na gyāna na joga japa। parihari sakala bharosa rāmahi bhajahiṃ te catura nara॥ 6 (b) ॥
Meaning
This hard age of Kali is a treasury of faults; in it there is neither dharma nor knowledge, nor even yoga and japa. In such times, those who give up all other hopes and worship Rama alone are the truly wise.
