The Ramayana is a crucial part of Indian literature and is the story of Lord Rama’s journey. The events that are described in the Ramayana are supposed to have been a part of our history and tell us about the importance of relationships and the duties that come with it.

Summary of the Book

The Ramayana is one among the two greatest Hindu epics. It revolves around the life of Rama and his loved ones. Upon reading the Ramayana, one will realize that it portrays many ideal characters like the ideal wife, the ideal brother, the ideal servant, the ideal king and the ideal father. In the story, Rama’s beautiful wife, Sita, gets abducted by the King of Lanka, Ravana. From this point is where the most essential events unfold. The text consists of 24,000 verses in a total of seven books and 500 cantos. It is best known to spread knowledge about dharma and explores the concept to a great length. The Ramayana has influenced Sanskrit poetry and Indian culture. It is a tale that is told to every Hindu child during their growing years so as to make them aware of their religious roots and its strong values.

An excellent buy

I purchased this book on recommendation with intention to learn and appreciate one of the greatest epics of Indian culture, and I stand proud of my decision. Not only is it a great read, but at many points throughout the book the efforts that author made for in-depth grasp of moral values (dharma and karma) with motive of practical implementation, stands to be appreciated. All this with subtlety and rather further enriching the flow of the story is truly commendable. I was visualising scenes ...

Very Good book..!!:)

Easy to understand.. Chapters are arranged in a very systematic way, feels good to read..:)

Could have been more descriptive about the scenarios in each chapter, but for the ones who just have to know the simplified Ramayana story this book is good..!!

Very good for the ones who doesnt know anything about Ramayana and wants to know about it fast..!!:)

Brilliant

I read this book when I was 10 and as a child I tremendously enjoyed reading this book. Mr.Rajagopalachari (Writer) has narrated this story in a marvelous and understandable way that the reader will go on reading this book, excited like a child.
And at the end Mr.Rajagopalachari has given a glossary to make the book more and more awe-inspiring. As a reader and a believer in god I hugely enjoyed the book.

An interesting story retold

The author tells epic story from his perspective pointing out the apparent differences at intervals between the Valmiki and Kamban Ramayanas. The book makes up for a good reading with some advices on conduct and character from the author himself. This book perfectly complements the author’s Mahabharata.
