पत्नीं मनोरमां देहि






Patneen manorman dehi
“Patneen manoraman dehi manovrittanusarineem. Tarineen durgsansaar saagarasya kulodbhavam-(O, Maa Durge! Kindly give me a beautiful wife belonging to a nice family, who can do according to my will and would lead me across the world sea).” Krishnakant studied all shastras (subjects) and attained a good knowledge. He became a great scholar and joined as a teacher in a Sanskrit college. He performed all daily religious activities of a pundit (Sanskrit scholar). Nevertheless, one thing was peculiar and special in him. He performed one thousand japas (recitations) of the above shloka (Sanskrit rhyme) daily, standing in the water. His friends, children and olders laughed seeing him reciting the shloka, because very few people recite this japa. Most of the people recite Gaayatree Mantra, their deity’s mantra or guru mantra. Krishnakant never cared for people's laughing and comments and continued his daily routine. After sometime, he married a very beautiful and gentle girl. She gave birth to four genius sons and a beautiful daughter. He wrote so many famous good books. His sons were very talented and became scholars. He got married his daughter to a very intelligent promising gentle person. The laughers’ sons became notorious and were indulged in anti social activities. Their wives were quarrelling all the time with their husbands and their lives were like those dwelling in hell.
Spouse’s role is very important in one’s life. If wife is pious having heavenly qualities, husband is very lucky and he can reach to any height. Contrarily, if she is bad, husband is very unlucky. In spite of having all worldly material, his life becomes wretched and pitiable. Ramkrishna Paramhans reached climax due to Maa Shaaradaa. Had a haraashankhini (notorious woman) come in his life, we would have seen another Ramkrishna involved in worldly wise and clever activities. Sita, Savitree, Dropadee, Ansuiya, Damyantee,Baa, Bhagvatee Devi Sharma etc, have played prominent roles in formation of their husbands. -------------Namo Ramanay.
