THE AFTERMATH OF PASCHATTAPA

''This pearl is the frozen tear of a ruthless bandit chief 
One, ashamed not of polluting Mother's breast that feeds him 
But shed copious tears ,seeing his only babe praying to HIM 
O God, reform my dad for 'lokasanthi." said another in brief.

''Ah! that's a rarity and thine's a judgement divine 
A sinner past redemption recognised that gravity of sin, 
Repented and showed readiness to retreat from farher sin 
Above all, desired reform for 8 'lokasanthi' and his son fine."

These alone are the enviable virtues for the king future
Regardless of past; for, every sinner is promised of bright future
A king needs 9 bahubala, 10 dheesakti and 11manavatha to rule
Thy choice embidies them and so the throne is yours to rule

Little though our land, it is known for 12Dharma paripalana 
Now that a befitting youth is found, it enjoys 13Ramapalana 
The departed Majesty, I'm sure from above blesses us all" 
Wound up thus Kulaguru his speech, amidst applause by all.



8. price of the world... 
9. strength of physique... 
10. mental power... 
11. humanism... 
12. just rule... 
13. rule of Sri Rama...
