About the Ramayana :- The Ramayana (रामायण) is one of the two great Sanskrit epics of ancient India, alongside the Mahabharata. Composed by the sage Valmiki, it is often called the Adi Kavya — the first poem ever written in human history. With approximately 24,000 verses divided into 6 Kandas (books), it tells the story of Prince Rama of Ayodhya, his exile, the abduction of his wife Sita, and the great war to rescue her. But the Ramayana is far more than a story of war and rescue. It is the ultimate guide to dharma — righteous living. Rama embodies the ideal son, husband, king, and warrior. Sita represents unwavering devotion and inner strength. Hanuman demonstrates the power of selfless service and bhakti. Lakshmana shows the beauty of brotherly loyalty. Each character in this epic is a living lesson in how to navigate the complexities of life with grace, courage, and moral clarity. The teachings of the Ramayana directly connect to the wisdom found in the Bhagavad Gita and the Vedas. The concept of dharma that Krishna explains in the Gita is the same dharma that Rama lives and breathes throughout this epic.

मनोजवं गमिष्यामि महेन्द्रं पर्वतोत्तमम् || १-७६-१५

Thereby oh, valiant one, it will be inapt of you to impair this motility of mine, oh, Raghava, I will depart with the speed of cerebration to Mt. Mahendra, a par excellent mountain... [1-76-15]

एते सुरगणाः सर्वे निरीक्षन्ते समागताः |

त्वामप्रतिमकर्माणमप्रतिद्वन्द्वमाहवे || १-७६-१८

शरमप्रतिमं राम मोक्तुमर्हसि सुव्रत |

शरमोक्षे गमिष्यामि महेन्द्रं पर्वतोत्तमम् || १-७६-२०

Mahendra, a point of no return for me..." So said Parashu Rama to Dasharatha Rama. [1-76-20]

हे सुव्रत राम, आप बाण छोड़ने के योग्य हैं। बाण छोड़ने के बाद मैं उत्तम पर्वत महेंद्र पर चला जाऊँगा।

Bala Kanda – Sarga 76 · v20

तथा ब्रुवति रामे तु जामदग्न्ये प्रतापवान् |

रामो दाशरथिः श्रीमान् चिक्षेप शरमुत्तमम् || १-७६-२१

While Rama of Jamadagni is speaking that way, that venturesome and blessed Rama of Dasharatha shot off that nonpareil arrow from that longbow of Vishnu. [1-76-21]

रामं दाशरथिं रामो जामदग्न्यः प्रशस्य च |

ततः प्रदक्षिणीकृत्य जगामात्मगतिं प्रभुः || १-७६-२४
