Ramayana — Bala Kanda, Sarga 22, Shloka 24
बलातिबलोपदेशः
The Instruction of Bala and Atibala
Translation
આ શ્લોક (બાલકાંડ ૧.૨૨.૨૪, Southern Recension, IIT Kanpur) માટે મૂળ દેવનાગરી પાઠ ઉપલબ્ધ નથી; કૃપા કરીને શ્લોકનો દેવનાગરી પાઠ (અથવા સ્પષ્ટ છબી) મોકલો, જેથી હું ભક્તિભાવપૂર્વક યોગ્ય અનુવાદ આપી શકું.
