Kshatra Dharma: Swami Ramdas' Secret

Teaching

To Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja

On the day of Ramdas Navami, we present the

English Translation of his most secret discourse
'Kshatra Dharma" given to Chattrapati Shivaji
Maharaja.

Presented for the first time in History.

Alpasvalpa Sansāravarma || Māgā bolilā
Rājadhārma ||
Ātā aikā Kshātra Dharma || Param durlabh jo ||1||

Earlier I discussed Raja-Dharma which was a small

aspect of the basic principles that constitute human
life. Now listen to the extremely secret discourse on
Kshatriya Dharma.
Jayāsa jīvāche vāte bhaye || Tene Kshātra Dharma
karū naye!||
Kāhītarī karūn upāy || Pota bhārāve ||2||

First & Foremost, those who hold ANY fear for

their Life should know that The Way of Kshatriyas
is NOT for them. Let them find some other way of
life to get their daily bread.
Vimukha marne Naraka hotī || Vāchona yetām
mothī fajitī ||
Īhaloka Paraloka jātī || Pāhenā konī ||3||

Death while fleeing guaranteess hell. Even if you

survive by flight, you face defamation. It's a
scenario that ruins one's fate either in this world or
the astral worlds.

Māritā Māritā Marāwe! || Tene gatīs pāvāve ||

Firona Āliyā bhogāve || MahādāBhāgya ||4||

Always slaughter and slaughter until your last

breath. If you die thus you attain the dimension of
heroes and if you end up winning in the bloodshed,
you enjoy great glory
Nazar karār rākhane || Kābū pāhona Qatal karane!
||
Rannshūrāchī antakarne || Chakkīt hotī ||5||

By keeping your eyes deep-set in determination and

conducting massacres with discretion of the
greatest enemy warriors, you can stun their morale.
Jaīsā bhāndyāchā galola || Nirbhay bhārāmadhye
padilā ||
Taīsā Kshatrī richavalā || Parasenemadhye ||6||

Just like collision of utensils disrupts long

maintained silence similarly even if a few
Kshatriyas roar it shatters the morale & the
balance of the hearts of enemy's armies!
Nishankapane bhāra phutatī || Paravīrāche tavake
tutatī ||
Jaishā balyā ghālūna ghetī || Bahirī uthatā ||7||

Even if a single Kshatriya raises his sword, the

enemy warriors are bound to be smashed and
slaughtered doubtlessly.
Aisechi avaghe uthatā || Paradalāchī kaun chintā ||
Harane laulatī Chitā || Dekhatā jaīsī ||8||

In such condition if multitudes of Kshatriya raise

their swords we need not even worry about the
strength of enemy. It will play out just like single
cheetahs killing multiple deers.
Marde takavā sāndū naye || Mhanje prāpta hoto
jaya ||
Kābū prasanga samay || Barā volakhāvā ||9||

A real Man never drops down his balance. Victory is

won thus. People should judge the appropriate
times when it is necesary to exercise self-control to
successfully execute a task.
Kābū samajenā antare || Te kāy zhunjela vichāre||
Yuddha karāve khabardāre || Loka rāzī rākhatām
||10||

Without knowing what's appropriate, one can never

find his calling to unleash revolution.
So always be CONSCIOUS while warring &
also maintain army's collective consciousness.
Donī Dale yekavate || Misaltā chikhal khāte ||
Yuddha karāve khanakhanāte || Seema sāndūni
||11||

War when observed from a distance appears to

simply be two opposing factions fusing into one,
both pulverizing each other in the fray. Vigour saps
in chaos and borders are confused.
Deva Mātra uchedīlā || Āpalā Svadharma udavalā
||
Jinnyāarīs mrutyū bhalā || Aise samjāve ||12||

If one's fighting capacity is rendered impotent when

one's Gods & Dharma are at risk of being
toppled down by enemies then death should be
preferable than living in such a condition.
MAHRATTA TITUKĀ MILĀWĀ! || ĀPULĀ
MAHĀRĀSHTRA DHARMA RĀKHĀWĀ! ||
Yevisī na karitā takwā || Pūrvaja hānsatī! ||13||

ASSEMBLE THE MARATHAS!

DEFEND MAHARASHTRA DHARMA!

If YOU (Chattrapati Shivaji Maharaja) do not

undertake this endeavour NOW, your ancestors will
mock you!
Marana haka toh chukenā || Deha vāchavilyā
vāchenā ||
Vivekī hoūn samjhānā || Kāy karāve ||14||

Death is guaranteed for all.

Try as you might to save the body, it will ultimately
be destroyed.
Become Rational first and accept this reality.
Bhale Kulavanta mhanāve || Tehī bega hāzir vhāve
||
Hāzīr na hotā bhrastāve || Lāgel pude ||15||

Even if you boast of being a Kulin Maratha, you too

will one day have to surrender to this reality and
seek it out. If you refuse to surrender to reality, it
will seek YOU out.
Eka Jātīne dona Jātī pāvalā || Toh kaīsā mhanāvā
bhalā ||
Tumhā sakalāsa Kopa ālā || Tarī Kshamā kīje
||16||

What use is boasting such a Bloodline, but letting

other races enjoy what is rightfully yours?

If my statements incurred your wrath even then

pardon me but...
Devadrohī Tituke kutte || Mārūnī ghālāve padte! ||
Devadāsa pāvatī Fateh! || Yadārthī sandeha nāhī
||17||

All these races of godless atheists must be

exterminated the way one culls mad dogs!
Servants of Gods always ultimately emerge
triumphant in such mission, this is doubtless!
Deva mastakī dharāvā! || Avaghā Halahalakola
karāvā! ||
Mulq badavāvā budavāvā || Dharmasthāpanesāthī
||18||

Bear your Devas in your mind and gulp down the

Halahala poison of struggle like Shiva.
Either Win the World or Ravage it. Cross all your
limits, to establish Dharma.
Vivek vichār sāvadhapane || Dīrgha prayatna
kelāchī karane ||
Tulajāvarāche nigune || Rāme Rāvana budavilā
||19||
Carry this out with rationality, foresight, caution
& commit your entire energy. Always
Remember blessings of Tulja Bhavani ultimately
empowered Ram to slay Ravan.
Aisī hai Tulajā Bhavānī! || Prasiddha
Rāmavaradayinī ||
Rāmadāsa dhyāto manī || Yatantimitta ||20||

Such is our Tulaja Bhavani, the one whose blessings

the already blessed Bhagwan Rama sought.

I, Ramadas meditate on her & bring this

discourse to an end.
Dedicated to Shri Ram.
Kshatra Dharma of Guru Shri Swami Samarth
Ramdas.

We pay our gratitude to the great Maharashtrian

saint

Shukrāsārikhe pūrna vaīrāgya jyāche |
