Prayer 2 (Translated In English)

O Lord, let any one accept any sadhana, he is free to follow its pursuit. But to me Your name is the granter of all boons. Karma, upasana, jnana - the various paths outlined in the Vedas for the emancipation of the soul - all are good. But I seek only one shelter and that is Your name; I seek nothing besides…. I have enjoyed the sweetness of Your name. It is the fulfiller of my wishes here and in the world to come… A man may have his affection riveted anywhere as also his faith, But I recognize my relationship with the Name - Rama; it is my father and mother. I swear by Shankara and state the truth without hiding it, That Tulsidas sees all good accruing to him only by repeating Your name.
