Origin & Story

Ram Raksha Stotra (verse 37), composed by Sage Budha Kaushika · Sage Budha Kaushika · Ancient (Puranic era)

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.

As told in scripture

The Ram Raksha Stotra promises that those guarded by Rama's names cannot even be seen by hostile beings of earth, sky or netherworld. Devotees across India recite this verse for victory and protection, and many testify that surrender expressed in 'Ramasya daso'smyaham' — 'I am Rama's servant' — brings courage and deliverance from danger.
