rs. And governing the kingdon for ten thousand years
Raghava performed ten horse-sacrifices with excellent horses and profuse
presents. And that highly powerful Rama, having his arms extended up to
the knee-joint, having a spacious breast and Lakshmana as his attendant,
ruled the earth (in this wise). And obtaining that excellent kingdom,
the virtuous-souled Raghava performed many sacrifices with his sons,
brothers and friends. And Rama governing the kingdom, the widows were
not distressed and there was no fear from voracious animals or from
diseases. The people were saved from the thieves and there was no other
trouble. And the old were not constrained to perform the funeral
ceremonies of the children. All were delighted and devoted to pious
observances. And beholding Rama they did not envy one another. And Rama
governing the kingdom, (people) lived for a thousand years and had a
thousand children,--they were freed from diseases and sorrow. And the
trees bore fruits and flowers perpetually--there were showers at will
and the wind blew pleasant. And the people delighted engaged in their
respective works and the subjects grew pious and truthful, under Rama's
regime, and were devoted to the observance of all pious works and gifted
with all auspicious marks. And Rama ruled the kingdom for ten thousand
years. And this sacred Epic, the first of its kind, affording piety,
fame, and long life, and describing the conquest of the kings, was
composed by Valmiki in the days of yore. He, who on this earth, shall
hear (this story) shall be divested of sins. People, wishing for
children, shall obtain the same and those, wishing for riches, shall get
by them. Thus people on this earth shall attain to their wished-for
objects hearing of this Rama's installation--the king may conquer the
earth and subdue his foes. Females may obtain sons (in the same way) as
Kaucalya gave birth to Rama, Sumitra to Lakshmana and Kaikeyi to
Bharata. Hearing the story of this work describing the victory of Rama
of unwearied actions one may attain to a long life. He, who with
devotion and having his anger subdued, shall hear the story of this epic
written by Valmiki in the days of yore shall get over all troubles. And
hearing the story of the Epic composed by Valmiki in the days of yore,
one living in foreign countries, shall return home and enjoy in the
company of his friends. Hearing this people shall secure all their
wished-for objects from Raghava and the celestials shall be greatly
delighted. When this book is kept in a house it becomes free from the
disturbance of evil spirits. Hearing this a king may conquer the earth,
and one living in a foreign country fareth well. If a female, during her
monthly course, hears the story, she shall give birth to an excellent
son. By reading and worshipping this ancient history people are freed
from all sins and attain to a long life. The Kshatryas, bending low
their heads, should hear this daily from the Brahmanas. Hearing or
reading the whole of Ramayana, forsooth shall people get sons and
riches. Rama is ever pleased with him. He is the ever-existing
Vishnu--the first God, the huge-armed Hari, Narayana and Lord. This
ancient work produceth such fruits. May good betide ye. Do ye openly
declare that Vishnu's prowess may increase. The celestials shall be
greatly delighted for reading or hearing this story of Rama and the
progenitors shall be always pleased. Those, who shall write this story
of Rama first recorded by the Rishi (Valmiki) shall reach the region of
Brahma. Hearing this people attain to, on this earth, multiplied
relations, increased wealth and crops, beautiful wives, excellent
happiness, and the accomplishment of all desires. They attain to long
life, health, fame, intellect, prowess, and good brothers. Therefore it
behoveth those good men, who wish for prosperity, to hear this story
perpetually.
