Inspired by Ramayan: “Binu pad chalai sunai binu kana…”

🌟 Introduction:

There’s a force in this universe—call it grace, discipline, divine order, or inner fire—that defies logic. Tulsidas in the Ramayan captures it in one verse:

“Binu pad chalai, sunai binu kana; Kar binu karam karai bidhi nana…”
(He walks without feet, hears without ears; acts without hands, and enjoys all pleasures without a face…)

This verse reminds us that true power lies not in physical tools but in inner mastery. It’s a call to awaken your unseen strength, especially in the toughest storms—whether on deck or in daily life.

 

Three Yes/No Reflection Questions:

  1. Have you ever achieved something that even you couldn’t logically explain?
  2. Do you sometimes forget the unseen forces that support your efforts—grit, grace, or teamwork?
  3. Are you relying only on visible strength, ignoring the deeper mental/spiritual strength within?

 

🔍 Verse Meaning & Interpretation:

This verse speaks of a divine being (or principle) who:

  • Walks without feet → Progresses without visible means
  • Hears without ears → Understands without being told
  • Acts without hands → Performs great deeds beyond tools
  • Enjoys without a mouth → Finds fulfillment without chasing pleasure

It’s about tapping into the limitless power of consciousness, will, and purpose—even when physical resources fall short.

 

💼 Application to All Professionals:

In our careers, we often wait for the "perfect tools"—a better team, more funding, approval, or training. But the real change begins when we start with what we have and who we are.

  • Leaders listen without being told.
  • Creators innovate without ideal setups.
  • True professionals move forward—even when conditions aren’t perfect.

This verse reminds us: Resourcefulness beats resources.

 

Relevance to Shipping Professionals:

For seafarers and shipping operations staff, this verse is a mirror:

  • A Chief Engineer who keeps systems running in rough seas with minimal spares.
  • A Master who leads silently but commands respect with inner strength.
  • An Operations Manager solving port chaos with calm, unseen clarity.

Whether on deck or ashore, discipline, intuition, and mindset often outperform manuals and machines. This verse reminds you to trust your inner compass.
