36 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अरण्यकाण्डे एकसप्ततितमः सर्गः ॥३-७१॥ पुरा राम महाबाहो महाबलपराक्रमम्। रूपमासीन्ममाचिन्त्यं त्रिषु लोकेषु विश्रुतम्॥ १॥
Formerly, Rama, mighty-armed, my form was inconceivable, possessing great strength and prowess, and renowned in the three worlds.
यथा सूर्यस्य सोमस्य शक्रस्य च यथा वपुः। सोऽहं रूपमिदं कृत्वा लोकवित्रासनं महत्॥ २॥
Just as is the form of the Sun, of the Moon, and of Śakra, so indeed I, having assumed this form, great and terrifying to the worlds, [appear thus].
ऋषीन् वनगतान् राम त्रासयामि ततस्ततः। ततः स्थूलशिरा नाम महर्षिः कोपितो मया॥ ३॥
O Rama, I used to terrify the sages who had gone into the forest, here and there. Then I angered the great sage named Sthūlaśiras.
स चिन्वन् विविधं वन्यं रूपेणानेन धर्षितः। तेनाहमुक्तः प्रेक्ष्यैवं घोरशापाभिधायिना॥ ४॥
While gathering various forest produce, he was assaulted by this form. Seeing me thus, he spoke to me as the utterer of a terrible curse.
एतदेवं नृशंसं ते रूपमस्तु विगर्हितम्। स मया याचितः क्रुद्धः शापस्यान्तो भवेदिति॥ ५॥
“Let this form of yours, so cruel and reprehensible, remain thus.” I entreated him, though he was angry, saying that there might be an end to the curse.
