Ayodhyå as rulers of men in the form of Da‹aratha and Kausalyå. In their house I shall
take birth in the form of four brothers, the ornament of Raghuís line. I shall justify all that
was uttered by Nårada and shall descend with My Supreme Energy. In this way I shall
relieve the earth of all its burden; be fearless, O gods.î As the divine voice from heaven
reached the godís ears they returned forthwith with their heart soothed.Then Brahmå
admonished Earth, who was rid of all fear and felt reassured in her heart. (1ó5)

Then Brahmå proceeded to his realm after thus instructing the gods: ìAssuming
the form of monkeys you go to the earth and adore the feet of ›r∂ Hari.î

All the gods went to their several abodes alongwith Earth; they all felt relieved
in their heart. And the gods were delighted to receive the orders that Brahmå gave,
and lost no time in carrying them out. They took the form of monkeys on earth; their
might and glory were incomparable. They were all brave and had mountains, trees and
nails for their weapons. Resolute of mind, they awaited the advent of ›r∂ Hari,
swarming on mountains and in woods wherever they liked and dividing themselves into
gallant troops of their own. I have related to you all this interesting account; now hear
that which was interrupted before. In the city of Ayodhyå there ruled a king who was
a jewel of Raghuís race; he was called Da‹aratha, a name which is familiar in the
Vedas. He was a champion of virtue, a repository of good qualities and a man of
wisdom; he was a sincere devotee of God Viƒu (the wielder of the ›år∆ga bow) and
his mind was also set on Him. (1ó4)
