Chitav jo lochan anguli laen
Chaupai 2, Under Doha 117 · Bal Kand
Chaupai Text
चितव जो लोचन अंगुलि लाएँ। प्रगट जुगल ससि तेहि के भाएँ॥ उमा राम बिषइक अस मोहा। नभ तम धूम धूरि जिमि सोहा॥ २ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
citava jo locana aṃguli lāeṃ। pragaṭa jugala sasi tehi ke bhāeṃ॥ ūmā rāma biṣaika asa mohā। nabha tama dhūma dhūri jimi sohā॥ 2 ॥
Meaning
For one who looks with a finger placed over the eye, two moons appear. O Uma, to imagine such delusion about Rama is like darkness, smoke, and dust appearing in the sky. [Just as the sky is pure and untouched, so too the Lord Rama is forever pure and unstained.]
Context
This is Chaupai 2, Under Doha 117 from Bal Kand, in the episode “Shiva-Parvati Dialogue on Rama”. The episode describes Parvati lovingly questioning Shiva about Rama's divine nature and the mystery of His incarnation.
