Chaupai Text
द्विज द्रोहिहि न सुनाइअ कबहूँ। सुरपति सरिस होइ नृप जबहूँ॥ राम कथा के तेइ अधिकारी। जिन्ह कें सत संगति अति प्यारी॥ ३ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
dvija drohihi na sunāia kabahūṃ। surapati sarisa hoi nṛpa jabahūṃ॥ rāma kathā ke tei adhikārī। jinha keṃ sata saṅgati ati pyārī॥ 3 ॥
Meaning
The story should never be told to one who is hostile to Brahmins, even if he be as exalted as the king of the gods or a human king. The true recipients of Rama's story are those to whom the company of saints is most dear.
