impure of mind in this world than I ? (1ó6)

The benevolent Råma will nonetheless respect the devotion and pleasure of this
wicked servantó›r∂ Råma, who made barks out of rocks and wise counsellors out of
monkeys and bears. Everybody calls me a servant of the Lord and I myself claim to be
one; and ›r∂ Råma puts up with the scoffing remark that a master like S∂tåís Lord has
a servant like Tulas∂dåsa. (28 A-B)

My presumption and error are indeed very great and, hearing the tale of my sins,
even hell has turned up its nose at them. I shudder to think of it due to my assumed
fears; while ›r∂ Råma took no notice of them even in a dream. The Lord, on the other
hand, applauded my devotion and spirit on hearing of, perceiving and scanning them with
the mindís eye. If there is anything good in oneís heart, it is marred by the telling; for ›r∂
Råma is pleased to note what is there in the devoteeís mind. The Lord never cherishes
in His mind the lapse, if any, on part of a devotee; while He remembers the latterís spirit
a hundred times. For instance, the very crime of which He had killed Vål∂ (the monkeyking
of Kikindhå) even as a huntsman was repeated in the misdemeanour perpetrated
