SrirAmula divya - sAvEri - Adi

P SrirAmula divya nAma smaraNa sEyuchunna chAlu
ghOramaina tapamulanu kOranETikE manasA ||
Oh Mind, meditating upon the divine name of Sri Rama is enough. Where is the necessity to perform severe penance?.
A.P. tAraka SreerAma dhyAnamu jEsina chAlu
vEru vEru daivamulanu vedaka nETIkE manasA||
Oh Mind, it is enough meditating upon Sri Rama's holy name which bestows salvation. Why do you search here and there for different deities?.
C 1 bhAgavatula pAdajalamu paina jallukonna chAlu
bhAgeeradhiki poyyEnanE bhrAnti yETikE
bhAgavatula vAgAmrutamu pAnamu jEsina chAlu
bAgu meeranaTTi yamruta pAnamETikE manasA ||
Oh Mind, it is enough sprinkling of water on head the water used to wash the feet of Vishnu devotees. Why do you want to go to Ganga river only to get water. It is enough if you listen to nectarine words of Vishnu devotees. Why do you require nectar which is not better?.
C 2 parula himsa sEyakunna parama dharma mantE chAlu
parula rakshintunani palkanETikE
dorakani parula dhanamula dOchaka yunDitE chAlu
gurutugAnu gOpuramu gaTTanETikE manasA ||
Oh Mind, it is enough if you do not harm others . You need not promise to save others. It is enough if you do not loot others' wealth . Why do you bother to build a temple tower for your fame?.
C 3 atidhi vachchi yAkalanna annaminta niDina chAlu
kratuvu sEyavalenanE kAnksha yETikE
satatamu bhadragiri svAmi rAmadAsuDaina
itara matamulani yETi vetala vETikE manasA ||
Oh Mind, it is enough if you give food to a hungry person. You need not have desire to perform sacrifice or ritual to feed others. Why do you search for other faiths when Bhdrachala Ramadasu is devoted servant of Sri Rama.
