Shri Ramadasa Charitam III Vol III Book VIII Chp 14 Shlokas 14 - 18
स एकदा महात्मा च रामभक्तिमतां वरः |
यदृच्छया विट्ठलस्य सन्निधिं प्राप सुव्रतः ||
तं द्रुध्त्वा रुक्मिणीकान्तं वासुदेवं जगत्पतिम् |
प्रार्थयामास भक्त्यैव बाष्पपूरितलोचनः ||
श्रीरमदास उवाच
किमर्थं सरयूं त्यक्त्वा भीमातीरेsत्र तिष्ठसि |
किमर्थं जानकीं त्यक्त्वा रुक्मिण्या सह वर्तसे ||
किमर्थं वानरांस्त्यक्त्वा क्रीडस्याभीरबालकैः |
किमर्थं त्वं धनुस्त्यक्त्वा दधासि सुरलीमिह ||
मद्भावमनुसृत्याद्य प्रार्थनां स्वीकुरु प्रभो |
तेनैव स्वीयरूपेण दर्शनं देहि राघव ||
Once that staunch devotee of Shri Rama reached the sanctum of Shri Panduranga unexpectedly. Looking at the spouse of Devi Rukmini, and the Lord of the world, Shri Vasudeva, he shed tears of joy and prayed to Him with devotion.
Shri Ramadasa prayed
Oh! Lord! Why are You standing here on the bank of the river Bheema leaving that of river Sarayu? Why are You standing with Devi Rukmini instead of Devi Janaki? Leaving behind the monkeys, why are you playing with the cow boys ? Why are you holding the flute leaving the bow? Lord! Oh! Raghava! Understand my Brava. Please accept my request and give me your darshan in that form of Yours.
