About this book

Ramayana is a timeless epic, which truly brings out the eternal spiritual wisdom of Land of Bharat, through the exemplary life journey of Lord Ram. Since time immemorial, people have understood these complex spiritual principles in the form of simple yet insightful tales of Ramayana. According to this book: "The sole objective of Ramayana is to establish 'Ram-Rajya' in the heart of every being, which ensures the permanent cure for the dysfunction of mind, and absolute freedom from 'Dukha.''" This book not only sheds light on some of the unknown facets of the popular episodes of Ramayana but also beautifully interprets and unravels the spiritual message hidden in these stories in the present-day context. Inspiring and captivating, this book gives meaningful and actionable insights into this great epic and can serve as an ideal guide for those seeking initiation into spirituality.
