  • PREFACE

    The Ramayana is a great epic of mankind. It is also known as Adikävya (First Epic), written by the Adi-kavi (first poet) Valmiki. This famous Indian epic deals with social, moral, political, spiritual, and philosophical aspects of human life, besides principally narrating the story of Rama, an incarnation of Lord Visnu.

    The Ramayana is a highly popular epic that has become the property of the Indian people and it is not an exaggeration if it is said that it has influenced more than any other poem the thought and poetry of a nation for thousands of years. People from different walks of life are all quite familiar with the characters and stories of the great epic. In the eyes of Indians Rama is the ideal prince, the embodiment of all conceivable virtue, and Sita the ideal of conjugal love and fidelity, the highest virtue of women. Popular sayings and proverbs bear unmistakable testimony to the acquaintance of the Indian people with the stories of the epic. Preachers belonging to different sects draw upon the story of the epic at the time of the religious discourses meant for the mass.

    The teachings of Rāmāyaṇa are practical and, therefore, easily comprehended. In the Rāmāyaṇa, we find cut-and-dried solutions for the abstract mysteries of life. The reader finds for himself how ideal brothers (Bharata and Lakṣmaṇa), an ideal husband (Rama) and the ideal wife (Sita), an ideal devotee worker (Hanuman), an ideal son (Rama) and even an ideal king (Rama) should behave in life.

  • INTRODUCTION

    The Story of Rama in Valmiki's Rāmāyana The epic Ramayana of Valmiki describes elaborately for the first time the exploits of Rama who assumed a human form as an avatar of Vişnu for the destruction of the asura king Ravana. The Rāmāyaṇa story is divided into six kända or chapters namely the Bala Kanda, the early life of Rama; the Ayodhya Kanda, the life of Räma in Ayodhya before his exile; the Aranya Kanda, Rama's forest life during his exile; the Kişkindhä Kända, Rama's friendship with Sugriva and search of Sită in different directions by the monkeys: the Sundara Kanda, Hanuman's exploits and his discovery of Sita in Ravana's Aśoka Vana forest at Lanka; the Yuddha Kanda, the fight between Räma and Ravana, Ravana's defeat and death and Sita's recovery and the Uttara Kanda, the later life of Rama as king of Ayodhyā.

    1. Båla Kända The story of Rāmāyaṇa completed by Valmiki in the form of a poem and sung by two ascetic boys, Lava and Kuśa, who were the sons of Rama, though they did not know of it at that time as the irony of fate. These two ascetic boys sang it in the assemblies of men and sages and also in the presence of Rama when these two boys accompanied Valmiki to Rama's Asvamedha sacrifice.
