वाल्मीक (vAlmIka)

 
शब्दसागरः
English
वाल्मीक
m.
 (-कः) VĀLMĪKA or VĀLMĪKI, the first poet and the famous
author of the Rāmāyaṇa. Though a Brāhmana by birth he led
a depraved life and was a notorious cut-throat, but was reclaimed
by Nārada. One day while he was engaged in his devotions, he
saw a fowler in the act of shooting at a pair of curlews and a
curse fell from his mouth in the shape of a regular stanza. The
sage discovered that it was a new mode of composition and by
the advice of BRAHMĀ he composed the Rāmāyaṇa in that style.
SITĀ when repudiated by her husband, took refuge with this
sage who brought up her twin sons.

वाल्मीकः,
वाल्प्तीकिः [वल्मीके भवः अण् इञ् वा] N. of a celebrated sage, and author of the Rāmāyaṇa. [He was a Brāhmaṇa by birth, but being abandoned by his parents in his childhood, he was found by some wild mountaineers who taught him the art of thieving. He soon became an adept in the art, and pursued his business of plundering and killing (where necessary) travellers for several years. One day he saw a great sage whom he asked on pain of death to deliver up his possessions. But the sage told him to go home and ask his wife and children if they were ready to become his partners in the innumerable iniquities that he had committed. He accordingly went home, but returned dismayed at their unwillingness. The sage then told him to repeat the word marā (which is Rāma inverted) and disappeared. The robber continued to repeat it for years together without moving from the place, so that his body was covered up with ant-hills. But the same sage reappeared and got him out, and as he issued from the ‘valmīka’ he was called Vālmīki, and became afterwards an eminent sage. One day while he was performing his ablutions, he saw one of a pair of Krauncha birds being killed by a fowler, at which he cursed the wretch in words which unconsciously took the form of a verse in the Anuṣṭubh metre. This was a new mode of composition, and at the command of the god Brahman he composed the first poem the Rāmāyaṇa. When Sītā was abandoned by Rāma, he gave her shelter under his roof, and brought up her two sons. He afterwards restored them all to Rāma].
