Ramayana · Chapter 3.070

tau kabandhena taṃ mārgaṃ pampāyā darśitaṃ vane
ātasthatur diśaṃ gṛhya pratīcīṃ nṛvarātmajau

tau śaileṣv ācitānekān kṣaudrakalpaphaladrumān
vīkṣantau jagmatur draṣṭuṃ sugrīvaṃ rāmalakṣmaṇau

kṛtvā ca śailapṛṣṭhe tu tau vāsaṃ raghunandanau
pampāyāḥ paścimaṃ tīraṃ rāghavāv upatasthatuḥ

tau puṣkariṇyāḥ pampāyās tīram āsādya paścimam
apaśyatāṃ tatas tatra śabaryā ramyam āśramam

tau tam āśramam āsādya drumair bahubhir āvṛtam
suramyam abhivīkṣantau śabarīm abhyupeyatuḥ

tau tu dṛṣṭvā tadā siddhā samutthāya kṛtāñjaliḥ
pādau jagrāha rāmasya lakṣmaṇasya ca dhīmataḥ

tām uvāca tato rāmaḥ śramaṇīṃ saṃśitavratām
kaccit te nirjitā vighnāḥ kaccit te vardhate tapaḥ

kaccit te niyataḥ kopa āhāraś ca tapodhane
kaccit te niyamāḥ prāptāḥ kaccit te manasaḥ sukham
kaccit te guruśuśrūṣā saphalā cārubhāṣiṇi

rāmeṇa tāpasī pṛṣṭhā sā siddhā siddhasaṃmatā
śaśaṃsa śabarī vṛddhā rāmāya pratyupasthitā

citrakūṭaṃ tvayi prāpte vimānair atulaprabhaiḥ
itas te divam ārūḍhā yān ahaṃ paryacāriṣam

taiś cāham uktā dharmajñair mahābhāgair maharṣibhiḥ
āgamiṣyati te rāmaḥ supuṇyam imam āśramam

sa te pratigrahītavyaḥ saumitrisahito 'tithiḥ
taṃ ca dṛṣṭvā varāṃl lokān akṣayāṃs tvaṃ gamiṣyasi

mayā tu vividhaṃ vanyaṃ saṃcitaṃ puruṣarṣabha
tavārthe puruṣavyāghra pampāyās tīrasaṃbhavam

evam uktaḥ sa dharmātmā śabaryā śabarīm idam
rāghavaḥ prāha vijñāne tāṃ nityam abahiṣkṛtām

danoḥ sakāśāt tattvena prabhāvaṃ te mahātmanaḥ
śrutaṃ pratyakṣam icchāmi saṃdraṣṭuṃ yadi manyase

etat tu vacanaṃ śrutvā rāmavaktrād viniḥsṛtam
śabarī darśayām āsa tāv ubhau tad vanaṃ mahat

paśya meghaghanaprakhyaṃ mṛgapakṣisamākulam
mataṅgavanam ity eva viśrutaṃ raghunandana

iha te bhāvitātmāno guravo me mahādyute
juhavāṃś cakrire tīrthaṃ mantravan mantrapūjitam

iyaṃ pratyak sthalī vedī yatra te me susatkṛtāḥ
puṣpopahāraṃ kurvanti śramād udvepibhiḥ karaiḥ

teṣāṃ tapaḥ prabhāvena paśyādyāpi raghūttama
dyotayanti diśaḥ sarvāḥ śriyā vedyo 'tulaprabhāḥ

aśaknuvadbhis tair gantum upavāsaśramālasaiḥ
cintite 'bhyāgatān paśya sametān sapta sāgarān

kṛtābhiṣekais tair nyastā valkalāḥ pādapeṣv iha
adyāpi na viśuṣyanti pradeśe raghunandana

kṛtsnaṃ vanam idaṃ dṛṣṭaṃ śrotavyaṃ ca śrutaṃ tvayā
tad icchāmy abhyanujñātā tyaktum etat kalevaram

teṣām icchāmy ahaṃ gantuṃ samīpaṃ bhāvitātmanām
munīnām āśraṃmo yeṣām ahaṃ ca paricāriṇī

dharmiṣṭhaṃ tu vacaḥ śrutvā rāghavaḥ sahalakṣmaṇaḥ
anujānāmi gaccheti prahṛṣṭavadano 'bravīt

anujñātā tu rāmeṇa hutvātmānaṃ hutāśane
jvalatpāvakasaṃkāśā svargam eva jagāma sā

yatra te sukṛtātmāno viharanti maharṣayaḥ
tat puṇyaṃ śabarīsthānaṃ jagāmātmasamādhinā
