### CC Adi 5.150

> রামের চরিত্র সব, — দুঃখের কারণ ।\
> স্বতন্ত্র লীলায় দুঃখ সহেন লক্ষ্মণ ॥১৫০॥

> rāmera caritra saba,—duḥkhera kāraṇa\
> svatantra līlāya duḥkha sahena lakṣmaṇa

*rāmera caritra saba*—all the activities of Lord Rāmacandra; *duḥkhera kāraṇa*—causes of suffering; *sva-tantra*—although independent; *līlāya*—in the pastimes; *duḥkha*—unhappiness; *sahena lakṣmaṇa*—Lakṣmaṇa tolerates.

**The activities of Lord Rāma were full of suffering, but Lakṣmaṇa, of His own accord, tolerated that suffering.**
