there to the delightful story of ›r∂ Hari, that has been sung by the sages in diverse ways
and the sole theme of whichóat the beginning, in the middle as well as at the endóis the
divine Lord ›r∂ Råma. I shall accordingly send you to a place where, O brother, the story
of ›r∂ Hari is recited everyday; you go there and listen. As you hear it all your doubts will
vanish and you will develop intense love for ›r∂ Råmaís feet.î (1ó4)

Except in the company of saints there is no talk of ›r∂ Hari, and one cannot be
rid of error except through such talk. And till oneís error is dispersed one cannot have
deep-rooted affection for ›r∂ Råmaís feet. (61)

The Lord of the Raghus cannot be found except through love, even though you
may practise Yoga (mind-control) or austere penance or culivate spiritual wisdom or
dispassion. In the north there is a beautiful blue mountain called N∂lagiri, where lives the
amiable Kåkabhu‹uƒŒi, highly conversant with the path of Devotion to ›r∂ Råma,
enlightened, full of all good qualities and ages old. He unceasingly recites ›r∂ Råmaís
narrative and noble birds of different species reverently listen to it. Go there and hear of
the many virtues of ›r∂ Hari; your distress born of infatuation will thus disappear.î When
I had thus told him everything in unambiguous terms, GaruŒa bowed his head at my feet
