VISION OF RAMAYANA

The Vision of Ramayana – English book by Swami Tejomayananda

Sitting on a hillside Sri Rama and Lakshmana soak in the beauty of rain of the rainy season. Rama draws many parallels between nature and human nature.

For instance, the clear sky reminds Him of pure soul, devoid of worldly desires.

The imagery of nature helps Him unravel His thoughts on dharma, jnana, bhakti and niti.

Swami Tejomayananda clubs his commentary on Kiskindha-kanda with Purajana-gita from Uttara-Kanda, which is Sri Rama’s address after His coronation, very much like the Presidential address on the eve of the Republic Day.

Swamiji’s commentary is lucid and lively.
