चंपूरामायण - बालकाण्ड - धर्म

उच्छैर्गतिर्जगति सिध्यति धर्मतश्चेत्
    तस्य प्रमा च वचनैः कृतकेतरैश्चेत् ।
तेषां प्रकाशनदशा च महीसुरैश्चेत्
    तानंतरेण निपतेत् क्व नु मत्प्रणामः ॥

It is well understood that a good death is obtained only by following Dharma through out the life. That is possible only by reciting and understanding the scriptures (including the Vedas). That is achieved only the help of the Gods on earth who illuminate the directions here with they jist of the scriptures (perhaps teachers). So, who else should I pay my salutations to if not for them?

चंपूरामायण बालकाण्ड - महता

नूनं जनेन पुरुषे महति प्रयुक्तं
    अगः परं तदनुरूपफलं प्रसूते |
कृत्वा रघूद्वहगतेः क्षणमंतारायं
    यद्भार्गवः परगतेर्विहतिं प्रपेदे ||

When a common man's actions impede the great undertakings of a noble man, then the common man will meet with befitting fate (as punishment). Look at what happened to Parashurama (one of the incarnations of Lord Vishnu who will be in that form ever without salvation) for having impeded Rama's mission on earth although it was only for a second. Parashurama is destined to be in this world (earth) for ever without ever returning to his original self (as Vishnu).
