Ramayana "As It Is". The original story with no imaginary speculations. Countless eons ago, when men and animals could speak together and powerful brahmanas could effect miracles, the uncontrollable King Ravana was terrorizing the universe. The Ramayana records the adventures of Rama, the Lord of righteousness, as He struggles to overcome the forces of Ravana, Unlike many modernized versions that are popular today, this edition presents the Ramayana "as it is." The absorbing narration of Sita, Rama, and Hanuman that has delighted and enlightened countless generations in India. Its timeless spiritual insights are compellingly relevant in today's confused world, and will continue to be so, even after various speculative interpretations are long forgotten.
