BHADRACHALAM

Then began a period of misery thrust upon him by an endless series or tortures Result: -hard manual work, lack of rest, inadequate diet, in sanitary cell, constant heckling etc. They sucked up the sap of his body, and debilitated him to the extent of sinking any moment. Tried however much they could not interfere with his instadaivam - Sri Rama and put out the ever burning soul-power. He started pouring out has unalloyed bhakti in the form of songs that enriched the religious literature of the world. Each of the gems that fell from his lips is in praise of Lord Sri Rama's glory and his boundless faith in him. He appealed to him for instant relief, when tortures subjected his physical frame to unendurable agony. Failing to sight the relief, he addressed his entreaties to Mother Sita and prayed for her intervention immediate for telling about his plight to Sri Rama thus "When you draw near him pressing his cheeks tenderly at the time of making love ....you and that indweller of all human souls, all alone on the same bed ...." He went further and ripped open his soul and said that he did not utilize the State funds for his comforts or prosperity, they were used for building temple and making jewels for the deities, the fact of actual occurrence. When the relief was not sighted, he tried for suicide too.
