गनपति गिरा गिरीश गौरि गुरु गोविंद जेहि जस छाके । शेष महेश दिनेश वेश मुनि भूप सुगुन गनि थाके ॥ जाको बिरद विदित वैभव बर अंड कोटि लगि ताके । युगलानन्यशरण करुनानिधि नाम शरन मन झाँके ॥२०१॥

Fresh English draft

Gaṇapati, Sarasvatī, Girīśa, Gaurī, the guru Bṛhaspati, and Govinda are immersed in its praise. Śeṣa, Maheśa, the Sun, exalted sages, and kings grow weary counting its beautiful qualities. Its fame and excellent majesty are known throughout ten million universes. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa’s mind watches expectantly for refuge in the compassionate Name.

घूमत घन समान घायल घर द्वार न सूझत शोका । असी चार झूला झूलत झुकि परत खाय झट झोका ॥ हर यक तरह तलास तरन तनि उतरि न शक्यो अशोका । युगलानन्यशरण नामहिं रटि टूट्यो डोर अरोका ॥२०२॥

Fresh English draft

Wandering like a cloud and wounded by grief, the being cannot see home or doorway. Swinging upon the swing of eighty-four, it suddenly takes a blow, bends, and falls. It searched every way for some small means of crossing, yet could not descend free of grief. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: by repeating the Name, the binding cord broke without obstruction.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 88 / printed 82. `असी चार` is the root’s compressed reference to the eighty-four-lakh birth cycle, which the explanation makes explicit. Persianate `हर यक तरह तलास`, `तनि`, and `डोर अरोका` remain diplomatic.

भरतखंड के जीव जाहिं जमसदन जबहिं तजि देहा । अंतक हृदय होत भारी दुःख बोलत सहित सनेहा ॥ कर्म मही मधि जाय बहुरि तुम आये इत खर खेहा । युगलानन्यशरण सोगम नहिं रटे नाम सजि नेहा ॥२०३॥

Fresh English draft

When beings of Bhārata’s land leave the body and go to Yama’s abode, even Death’s heart grows heavy with sorrow and he speaks affectionately: ‘Having gone into the midst of the land of action, have you returned here again after eating harsh dust?’ Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: alas, you did not repeat the Name adorned with love.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 88 / printed 82. The dialogue with Yama is preserved as the work’s narrative claim, not independent history. `इत खर खेहा` and the difficult `सोगम नहिं` remain diplomatic; the explanation securely gives the dust-eating reproach and repeated sorrow that loving repetition was neglected.

Fresh English draft

With tear-filled eyes, Śrī Dharmarāja reproaches them again and again: ‘You did not take the supremely accessible, fallen-purifying Name of Lord Rāma. You babbled uselessly about many disputes and sense-objects but did not keep company with saints. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: unfortunate one, now experience the fruit of that.’

Fresh English draft

The instant a being begins repeating the Name, adorned with vow, love, and trust, at that very moment Viṣṇu, four-faced Brahmā, and the sages praise that being. True, true—a hundred times true—is the surpassing majesty of Śrī Nāma. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: without remembrance, every instant deserves reproach.

Fresh English draft

Śruti and good scriptures call the human body an abode of practice and an instrument of well-being. Having obtained it in every excellence, people still do not taste the nectar of the Beloved’s dear Name. Instead their hearts desire Indra’s pleasure, a city like hell. Yugalānanya says: ‘Worship the Name!’—yet the fool grows angry on hearing this.

Tongue, repeat the Name: abandon laziness and leave argument and sophistry. What hardship is there in this? Explain even that clearly. Open your eyes and see how rare another such opportunity will be; turn away from worldly contrivance. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: remain always absorbed in the Name.

Fresh English draft

When your lotus-hand takes up the sword of Rāma’s Name to subdue the world’s bondage, you will defeat ten million enemies beginning with desire and become joyful in mind. You will enjoy the matchless happiness and relishable fare of an unwavering kingdom. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: never again will you mistakenly set foot in the ocean of becoming.

Remain vigilant at all times and hold fast to Śrī Sadguru’s word. Understand worldly convention as contrary and abandon talk of the world. Keep loving attachment to the Name and the beautiful image of dark-hued Rāma, while maintaining natural equanimity toward the world. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: place enduring hope in Lady Sītā.

Bondage to sense-objects is like appeasing a child, while worldly talk extends agitation. Abandon the fleeting pleasure of enjoyment as a deceptive shadow, and turn the proud face away. Join your heart to those who are life itself and drown pride and conceit in the ocean of their praise. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: the wielder of Śārṅga is pleased by very little.

You came alone, with no other companion, and in the end you will depart alone. For four brief hours, look upon the marketplace and the lovely fair of relationships and affection. At some moment you will become like a clod of earth. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: remember the Name urgently, night and day.

Contemplate the lovely sun and moon as dwelling within the Name. Before them, behold and accept painless fire together with them. Then unite the three as one and hold them in the mind with great delight. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: adorn love for the Name, supreme above all.

धन्य सन्त अति मान मन्य गुन गन्य नाम रस छकते हैं । नाम हीन पल पाव निरय सम समुझि व्यर्थ नहिं बकते हैं ॥ चित चष गगन चढ़ाय नाम बल किस ही तरफ न तकते हैं । युगलानन्य नाम मारग से सपनेहुँ कभी न थकते हैं ॥२२३॥

Fresh English draft

Blessed are the saints, highly honoured and foremost in virtue, who drink their fill of the Name’s rasa. Regarding even a fraction of a moment without the Name as hell, they do not babble uselessly. By the Name’s strength they raise the eye of consciousness skyward and look in no other direction. Yugalānanya says: they never tire of the Name’s path, even in a dream.

Fresh English draft

Holding a pure state of equality toward all, they become absorbed in the Name’s own form. Receiving equal contentment and nourishment, they wash their hands of all else and remain continually intoxicated. Considering countless disciplines without the Name to be pain-giving, they let them flow away. Yugalānanya says: lovers of the Name drink its rasa and become deeply languid with intoxication.

Fresh English draft

Whoever acquires a taste for the Name has a singular way and understanding. Such a person casts far from the heart the sorrow of social order, lineage-duty, and ritual action. Awakened from the night of delusion, day and night that person plunders attachment to sense-objects. Yugalānanya says: the Lord of Ayodhyā is delighted by remembrance of the Name.

Excellent devotional feeling is extraordinary bhāṅg, and beloved love is its pepper. Natural simplicity is cleansing fennel, and pure surrender is excellent water. Supreme trust is the stone mortar, while longing for the Lord of one’s life is the grinding stick. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: through every vein spreads the intoxication of one’s own love.

The true Name is the crest-jewel of doctrine, the essence of nectar, and an ocean of joy. Supreme above all, the Lord of all dwells through it in the heart-cities of Śeṣa, Śiva, and Sanaka’s company.

Sounding the Name’s drum, they abandon what must be abandoned and become absorbed in the wondrous reality.

This embodied being has no companion, intimate, or true associate. One came entirely alone; at first and at last one is always alone. There is a four-day flash of moonlight, then the shadow of darkness. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: worship the Name; do not drown in the ravine of worldly becoming.

The weeping/laughing holy-madness image and inner love-tattoo are secure; `नोदत` remains diplomatic, with its impulsion sense following the prose.

जे श्री सर्वेश्वर सीतावर नाम प्रान प्रिय मेरो । सकृत शरन सम्पन्न होत हिय हरत अशेष अँधेरो ॥ अनुभव अमल असल पूरन कर प्रेम प्रकाश उजेरो । युगलानन्यशरण सुमिरत नहिं कीजे तिल अबसेरो ॥२४५॥

Fresh English draft

Victory to the Name of Sītā’s chosen Lord, the Lord of all, dearer to me than life. Taking refuge once, one becomes fulfilled; it removes all darkness from the heart. It completes stainless, genuine realization and illumines the radiance of love. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: do not delay remembrance by even a sesame-grain’s measure.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 102 / printed 96. `सकृत शरन`, `अनुभव अमल असल`, and `तिल अबसेरो` remain diplomatic. The explanation confirms Sītā’s Lord, one-time refuge, removal of ignorance, and immediate remembrance.

रसना रसिकराज राघव नव नाम नेह रस लावें । प्रीति परा पावस प्रवेश करि विरह बूंद बरसावें ॥ तुच्छ-रुच्छ तृन सम हृषीक गन मूर्छित तिनहिं जिवावें । युगलानन्यशरण दम्पति सम्पति सनेह सरसावें ॥२४६॥

Fresh English draft

Wet the tongue with the fresh rasa of love for the Name of Rāghava, king of rasikas. Enter the rainy season of supreme love and shower drops of separation. Revive the senses, faint like paltry dry grass, turning them toward the Beloved. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: make them luscious with the loving wealth of the divine Couple.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 102 / printed 96. The rainy-season, separation-drop, and revived-senses imagery is secure. `हृषीक गन` is retained and interpreted as the senses from the explanation; the Couple is explicitly identified there as Sītā-Rāma.

हे रसने द्विज बीच बास तव अधर बसन प्रिय प्यारो । ताहू में सुन्दर स्वाद सुचि रुचि प्रसन्नता न्यारो ॥ सज्यो समूह समाज साज शुभ कसर एक कटु खारो । युगलानन्यशरण सीतापति नाम न लेत गँवारो ॥२४७॥

Fresh English draft

O tongue, your dwelling is safe between the teeth, and your garment of lips is lovely and dear. Within it you possess beautiful taste, pure relish, and extraordinary gladness. You are adorned with every auspicious quality and provision; your one defect is speaking bitterly and harshly. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: you remain rustic by not uttering Sītā’s Lord’s Name.

Root on PDF 102 / printed 96 and explanation on PDF 103 / printed 97 were checked at 500 dpi. `द्विज` denotes teeth here and `अधर बसन` the lip-garment.

आसिक नाम उपासक साँचे ऐब ऐन दिल लाना । जिनते नाम अनूप जहूरा जगत बीच बिखराना ॥ सहे कहो कैसे दिलजानो नाम सनेह समाना । युगलानन्य प्रथम दश मधि इह अति अपराध बखाना ॥२४८॥

Fresh English draft

True lovers and worshippers of the Name bring their faults before the heart’s own eye. Through them the incomparable Name becomes manifest and spreads throughout the world. Tell me, how could the heart’s Beloved—immersed in love of the Name—endure their defamation? Yugalānanya says: among the ten offences this grave one is declared first.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 103 / printed 97. The Persianate `आसिक`, `ऐब ऐन`, `जहूरा`, and `दिलजानो` remain diplomatic. The explanation identifies self-examination and the first nāmāparādha as defamation of true saints.

श्रीशंकर-शंकर रघुचर-बर भेद खेद बतलाना । परम प्रीतम नाम सनेही सर्वेस स्वाद समाना ॥ तुच्छ-रुच्छ दिन रैन बखानत मूरख अज्ञ अज्ञाना । युगलानन्य बिचारि वस्तु अपराध दूसरो जाना ॥२४९॥

Fresh English draft

To proclaim a grievous distinction between beneficent Śrī Śaṅkara and excellent Rāma of Raghu’s line is the second offence. Lovers of the supreme Beloved’s Name taste both as their all. Fools, ignorant and unknowing, repeat this paltry, barren distinction day and night. Yugalānanya says: examine the matter and know it as the second offence.

Editorial note and reading status

Scan-collated on PDF 103 / printed 97. The theological non-difference of Śaṅkara and Rāma is represented as the work’s teaching. The difficult `सर्वेस स्वाद समाना` is retained; the explanation offers reciprocal and equal-rasa readings without forcing a single syntax. Separate second-pass review on 2026-09-14 re-read the root and explanation against the page image and confirmed this transcription and English policy; the disclosed alternative remains part of the checked edition.

परम सार रसमयी दशा बर वल्लभ प्रगट लखावें । जेहि हित नित तरसत योगीजन सो स्वरूप झलकावें ॥ आरत हरन शरन सुख सम्पति सहज स्वाद सरसावें । युगलानन्यशरण तीजो गुरु आज्ञा भंग गनावें ॥२५०॥

Fresh English draft

The revered guru reveals the supreme essential state filled with rasa, in which the excellent Beloved is seen manifestly. He makes visible the form for which yogins continually yearn. He removes distress and makes the refuge’s joyful wealth—the Name—luscious with natural taste. Yugalānanya Śaraṇa says: breaking the guru’s command is counted as the third offence.

Editorial note and reading status

Root on PDF 103 / printed 97 and explanation on PDF 104 / printed 98 were checked at 500 dpi. The guru’s revelatory role and third nāmāparādha are secure. `आरत हरन शरन सुख सम्पति` remains diplomatic rather than being expanded into the prose’s full explanation.
