Ramcharitmanas 2.316.2 meaning
bharat seel gur sachiv samajoo sakuch saneh bibas raghurajoo
prabhu kari kripa panvareen deenheen sadar bharat sees dhari leenheen
भरत सील गुर सचिव समाजू। सकुच सनेह बिबस रघुराजू॥
प्रभु करि कृपा पाँवरीं दीन्हीं। सादर भरत सीस धरि लीन्हीं॥
Seeing Bharata's goodness and the gathering of gurus and ministers, Rama was caught between hesitation and love. Out of grace he gave his sandals, and Bharata reverently placed them on his head.
What it means
Bharata accepted Rama's sandals instead of the crown, to rule only as a caretaker. Holding power as a trust for someone else is a rare and noble kind of leadership.How it helps in real life
- At work: You're made acting team lead while your manager is on maternity leave. Run things her way, and hand everything back cleanly when she returns.
- With money: Managing your parents' savings or a sibling's account? Keep a simple sheet of every rupee and share it with them monthly.
हिंदी में अर्थ
भरत का शील और गुरु, मंत्रियों का समाज देखकर श्रीराम संकोच और प्रेम के बीच बँध गए। प्रभु ने कृपा करके अपनी पादुकाएँ दीं और भरत ने आदर से उन्हें सिर पर धारण कर लिया।
भरत ने ताज की जगह राम की पादुकाएँ लीं और केवल रखवाले बनकर राज किया। सत्ता को किसी की अमानत मानकर सँभालना दुर्लभ और श्रेष्ठ नेतृत्व है।
