Jana Ram satain dukhu pava

Chaupai 2, Under Doha 54 · Bal Kand

Chaupai Text

जाना राम सतीं दुखु पावा। निज प्रभाउ कछु प्रगटि जनावा॥ सतीं दीख कौतुकु मग जाता। आगें रामु सहित श्री भ्राता॥ २ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

jānā rāma satīṃ dukhu pāvā। nija prabhāu kachu pragaṭi janāvā॥ satīṃ dīkha kautuku maga jātā। āgeṃ rāmu sahita śrī bhrātā॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

Rama understood that Sati was distressed; then He manifested some of His divine power and showed it to her. Sati, while going along the path, saw this marvel: Rama was walking ahead together with Sita and Lakshmana. [Sita was shown on this occasion so that Sati might behold Rama’s form as pure consciousness and bliss, and the imagined separation and sorrow that had arisen in her might be dispelled, restoring her to composure.]
