He would nicely speak that it is one’s Supreme duty not to remain a silent spectator towards others’ troubles; He has (only) fame as bestower of boons and One well-disposed towards those dependent on Him; did You too fall in love with Lord Sri Rama - praised by this Thyagaraja – the One who confers victory in this World – because He is Lotus Eyed? But, there is no compassion in His mind.
