Bāla Kāṇḍa·Dohā 1·D.1
जथा सुअंजन अंजि दृग, साधक सिद्ध सुजान।
कौतुक देखहिं सैल बन, भूतल भूरि निधान॥
jathā suaṁjana aṁji dṛga, sādhaka siddha sujāna |
kautuka dekhahiṁ saila bana, bhūtala bhūri nidhāna ||
English Rendering
Just as skilled seekers — sādhakas and siddhas — having applied the fine collyrium to their eyes, delightedly see the mountains, the forests, the earth’s abundant treasures.
हिन्दी अनुवाद
जैसे कुशल साधक और सिद्धजन नेत्रों में सुन्दर अंजन लगा कर पर्वत, वन तथा पृथ्वी के अगणित निधानों को कौतूहलपूर्वक देखते हैं।
Context — Editorial
The first dohā of Bāla Kāṇḍa closes the guru-vandanā and opens the way to the poem itself. The image is precise: the guru’s teaching is an anointment of the eye; once it is applied, hidden treasures — the deeds of Rāma — become as visible as mountains and forests to ordinary sight.
