Origin & History
Source: Ram Raksha Stotra (verse 37), composed by Sage Budha Kaushika
Author: Sage Budha Kaushika
The Ram Raksha Stotra was revealed, according to tradition, by Lord Shiva to Sage Budha Kaushika in a dream; on waking, the sage wrote it down. This verse near its close is a rapturous declaration of surrender, repeating Rama's name in every Sanskrit case to express that Rama is everything to the devotee — victor, protector, refuge and master.
