Rama

Although Valmiki's Ramayana has been enjoyed for millennia, it is not widely known that it is the oldest existing piece of literature in the world. This translation of Valmiki's Ramayana, Rama: A Man of Dharma, is a compelling read while remaining true to the original work. It brings Valmiki's ancient Sanskrit epic to you in lucid English without diluting the poet's intent. Read this book and be amazed at the high thinking of our ancestors. The values we cherish today--democracy, liberty, equality and justice--are core to this story. Rama is an embodiment of the type of righteousness that never loses relevance, making him a man who is a role model in every age.
