can one ever be satisfied..?

can one ever be satisfied..?

यः पिबन् सततं रामचरितामृतसागरम्।

अतृप्तस्तम् मुनिम् वन्दे प्राचेतसम् अकल्मषम्॥

yaḥ piban satataṁ rāmacaritāmṛtasāgaram|

atṛptastam munim vande prācetasam akalmaṣam||

Perhaps the glory of Rama and his lore is best expressed in this innocuous couplet.

It is a recited in reverence to Sage Valmiki, the author of Ramayanam..

Meaning

______________________________________________

I pay my respects to the guileless sage born in the clan of Prachetas ( Valmiki) who, could not ever quench his thirst, even after drinking the whole of the ocean that is the nectar of the story of Rama

_______________________________________________

That thumbnail sage Agastya drank the ocean once..

And the earth went dry.. He could save the earth only by regurgitatin the waters stored in his tummy..

But the sea of glory of Rama gets filled even if it is emptied by lovers of Rama drinking the ambrosia ever and ever..

The strange thing is that those waters are addictive..

People who tasted them once crave for more of it for ever..

Thanks Rama, it is a nice obsession..
