THE POWER OF CHANTING THE TARAKA RAMA MANTRA

Once, Narada Muni asked Lord Vishnu, “What is the benefit of chanting the TARAKA MANTRA “Om Shri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama”?

Lord Vishnu pointed to a dung worm in the middle of an earthen hole and said, “Ask that creature and it will tell you.”

Narada did as he was told. But as soon as the dung worm saw Narada, it passed away.

Puzzled and surprised, Narada returned to Vishnu to share the unfortunate outcome. In response, Vishnu assured Narada not to be disheartened and suggested another approach. He pointed to a parrot’s nest in a mango tree.
"A baby parrot will be born there in a few moments. Go and ask the parrot about the power of chanting the Taraka Mantra"

Narada proceeded to the nest and chanted the Taraka Mantra “Shri Rama Jay Rama Jaya Jaya Rama” greeted the baby parrot and even before asking the question of the power of chanting the Rama Mantra, the parrot died!
Narada became even more disappointed with the turn of events.

He went back to Lord Vishnu and told him what had happened. Lord Vishnu said, “I see. Let me try one more thing.”
He pointed to a barn in the distance. “A cow will give birth to a calf there in a few moments. Go and ask the calf.”

Narada reluctantly went to the barn. When the cow gave birth to a calf, Narada started chanting the Taraka Rama Mantra. But as soon as he finished chanting the mantra, it too died!
Narada was now very distressed. He went back to Lord Vishnu and told him sorrowfully what had happened and asked “Lord, why is the great Taraka mantra, which is supposed to be a saving mantra, killing every Jiva that hears it? I am confused. Please tell me.”
Lord Vishnu said, “I understand your frustration. But I promise you that this time, the answer you seek will be given to you.”
He pointed to a rich kingdom in the distance.
“Go to that kingdom. The queen will soon give birth to a child. Ask the child what you want to know.”
Narada became fearful & pleaded with Lord Vishnu.
He said, “Mahavishnu, all the creatures I encountered - the insects, animals, and birds - met their demise upon seeing me… What if this child dies too? What will the king and the queen do to me?”

Lord Vishnu assured Narada that nothing would happen to him. Narada took a deep breath and went to the kingdom.
When he arrived at the palace, he was welcomed by the King and taken to the just-born baby.
Rishi Narada With great reluctance, Narada chanted ‘Om Shri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama’ into the ears of the baby.

Narada closed his eyes tightly not wanting to see the tragedy that had happened on three previous occasions.

The Great Sage Narada heard a voice from the cradle.

 “Greetings, great sage,” the voice said.
Narada was astonished. Overwhelmed, Narada approached the newborn and asked the question that had been troubling him all along:
“What is the benefit of encountering chanting the Taraka Rama Mantra “Shri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama”.

The child said,
“ Oh great sage, for elevating me from three lowly births in a short time to this noble human birth. You came to me when I was a dung worm and when you chanted the great Taraka Rama Mantra ‘Shri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama’, I was instantly liberated from that miserable body and was born as a parrot. Even there when I became a parrot, you recited the powerful Taraka Rama Mantra. I was then reborn as a calf, yet again, you blessed me with the Taraka Rama Mantra and I was liberated from that birth too. Now I am reborn as a prince. I have benefited greatly from seeing you. Oh, revered sage, the benefits of encountering great souls like you are immeasurable and infinite.”

Narada left with a sense of contentment, understanding the profound significance of chanting the Taraka Rama Mantra

Moral of the story:
The benefit of chanting the evergreen powerful
TARAKA RAMA MANTRA “SHRI RAMA JAYA RAMA JAYA JAYA RAMA”
may not have immediate benefits at that moment, but it has a lasting impact and takes our destiny to great heights.

Chant the TARAKA RAMA MANTRA and stay blessed.
