"Dearest Rama! Kindly wash yourself now with the water from the River Saryu. After that, receive this holy mantra in the name of Bala and Atibala. The effect of this mantra upon you would be extraordinary – you would never experience tiredness or illness and there would be no distortion in your appearance. Even when you are asleep or in a state of inattentiveness, the Rakshasas won’t be able to harm you. No one on this earth would be able to stand up to your strength."
