DHARMA IN ACTION

See how Dharmaraja won evergreen laurels by his peerless tanacity shown but for a cause noble.

"Do You ¹Dharmaja require any ²hitopadesa, 
One from whom ³Dharma Devatha readily takes ⁴adesa 
And deeming it to be true to every letter 
Bids mankind to implement to make the world better ?

Never did you see, nor 'Il tolerate any where ⁵adharma 
You 're ⁶Dhhrma svarupa and fed on eternal Dharma, 
⁷Duryodhana, your born enemy paid homage to your word 
By shutting mouths, when imputed motives to your word.

The ⁸Dwapara yuga took your word as gospel truth
And adored your as Dharma in motion, in sooth 
Such's is your glory and so splendid's your life 
⁹Adisesha too can't recount the glory of your life.

Pleased with such peerless fame, gods decided to bestow 
The honour of ¹⁰Sajiva swarga prapti with divine gusto 
Sent this divine chariot as first act in commemorations 
No ¹¹avatarapurusha was given this as mark of veneration.
