Chaupai Text
सनकादिक नारदहि सराहहिं। जद्यपि ब्रह्म निरत मुनि आहहिं॥ सुनि गुन गान समाधि बिसारी। सादर सुनहिं परम अधिकारी॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
sanakādika nāradahi sarāhahiṃ। jadyapi brahma nirata muni āhahiṃ॥ suni guna gāna samādhi bisārī। sādara sunahiṃ parama adhikārī॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
The sages Sanaka and others praise Narada. Though they are absorbed in Brahman, when they hear the singing of Rama's glory, they too forget their samadhi and listen with reverence. They are supremely qualified to hear the Lord's story.
