श्री राम

Ram Shalaka Prashnavali

The traditional oracle printed with Goswami Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas: nine chaupais hidden in a grid of 225 syllables. Think of your question, remember Shri Ram, and touch any one cell — every ninth cell from it spells the chaupai that answers you.

How to ask

  1. Sit calmly; think of one clear question (yes/no or "should I…").
  2. Say "श्री राम" in your mind three times, close your eyes, and touch any cell of the grid.
  3. The highlighted cells (every ninth from yours) form a chaupai; its phal is the answer.
  4. Ask one question once a day; do not repeat the same question to get a better answer.
Touch any cell
All nine chaupais
  1. 1सुनु सिय सत्य असीस हमारी। पूजिहि मन कामना तुम्हारी॥ Favourable

    Phal (answer): An excellent answer. The work will succeed and the wish will be fulfilled.

    Bal Kand — Mother Gauri (Parvati) blesses Sita that her heart's wish will be fulfilled.

  2. 2प्रबिसि नगर कीजे सब काजा। हृदय राखि कोसलपुर राजा॥ Favourable

    Phal (answer): Begin the work remembering God — it will succeed. A good answer.

    Sundar Kand — before Hanuman enters Lanka, Lankini tells him: keep Shri Ram in your heart, enter the city and do all your work.

  3. 3उघरें अंत न होइ निबाहू। कालनेमि जिमि रावन राहू॥ Unfavourable

    Phal (answer): Not a good answer. There is deceit in this matter and it will not end well — better to leave it.

    Bal Kand — whoever is different inside and out cannot last; like Kalanemi, Ravana and Rahu, the truth comes out.

  4. 4बिधि बस सुजन कुसंगत परहीं। फनि मनि सम निज गुन अनुसरहीं॥ Uncertain / be careful

    Phal (answer): A middling answer. Beware of bad company or being misled; hold on to your own values.

    Bal Kand — by fate good people fall into bad company, yet like the jewel on a serpent's head they keep their own virtue.

  5. 5होइ है सोइ जो राम रचि राखा। को करि तर्क बढ़ावै साखा॥ Uncertain / be careful

    Phal (answer): Hard to say / uncertain now. Leave it to God's will and do not argue with fate — what comes will be for the best.

    Bal Kand — Shiva tells Parvati: what Ram has ordained will happen; why grow branches of argument.

  6. 6मुद मंगलमय संत समाजू। जो जग जंगम तीरथराजू॥ Favourable

    Phal (answer): An excellent answer. The work will succeed; the company and guidance of good people bring blessing.

    Bal Kand — the company of saints is full of joy and blessing; it is the moving Prayag (king of pilgrimages) of the world.

  7. 7गरल सुधा रिपु करहिं मिताई। गोपद सिंधु अनल सितलाई॥ Favourable

    Phal (answer): A very good answer. The work will certainly succeed; trouble passes and even opponents turn favourable.

    Sundar Kand — for one who has Shri Ram's grace, poison turns to nectar, enemies to friends, the ocean to a cow's hoof-print and fire to coolness.

  8. 8बरुन कुबेर सुरेस समीरा। रन सन्मुख धरि काह न धीरा॥ Uncertain / be careful

    Phal (answer): A middling answer. There are obstacles and strong opposition; success is doubtful now — be patient and wait for the right time.

    Lanka Kand — even Varuna, Kubera, Indra and Vayu could not hold their ground before Meghnad in battle.

  9. 9सुफल मनोरथ होहुँ तुम्हारे। राम लखनु सुनि भए सुखारे॥ Favourable

    Phal (answer): An excellent answer. The wish will be fulfilled and the work will succeed.

    Bal Kand — on the way to the bow-sacrifice with Vishwamitra: "may your wishes be fulfilled" — hearing this Ram and Lakshman were glad.

The chaupais are from Tulsidas's Ramcharitmanas (Gita Press edition prints this prashnavali). Take the answer as guidance for reflection, not as a fixed prediction.
