The RamayanaEssay Preview: The RamayanaReport this essayEvery Indian person knows the story of Ramayana. The story is read to all young children in India. Children are told the ancient tale in Sanskirt and boys are told to act like Rama and girls are told to act like Sita. They read of Ravanas extreme selfishness and disregard for anything or anyone leads to death. This classic piece of Hindu literature has influenced and shaped all aspects of Indian society. A society instills emotional balance and maturity into their children through stories of hero and villain or good vs. bad.
As Boys read about Rama they are taught that humility, persevere and trusting family are winning virtues. Rama is an example of how one must learn to and move through life and except help when needed. 1. His manner is to listen and not jump to conclusions. He is seen as a fair young man which young boys can relate to. He is a god, but his lessons are learned as a human. On page 144 Rama becomes impatient and wants to destroy an ocean so he and his army can cross. He stops though and listens to the sea gods plea to not destroy the ocean. Then, Ramas war monkeys, men and tiny spuerrals all came with mud, rocks , pieces of mountains and pebbles to fill in the sea. He is working hand in hand with them to fill in the sea. The boys are reading about a man that can listen and except help when its needed. He doesnt horde his power over others, yet he knows he is a superior being. His faith and trust for his father when Rama was asked to go into exile for fourteen years and his brother that reined for him fourteen years instills a sense of male reliance. The boys learn from the examples of fathers and brothers working together. They see men trusting life and its fate they face. Men are seen as not having to compete for the alpha male role or be the super hero, and still respected as humans.
Sita is able to deminstrate both vulnerablity and rational acts. She was lead astay by a golden jeweled dear. She wanted it with all her passion. No logic or reason other than she just wanted it. She was trusting of an old man that was Ravana in disgues. The dear ended up being her reason for capture by Ravanan the evil lord. . She had love and compasion for living creatures and a trust for her elders. She was nieve torwad life and trusted too much. She saw these creatures through trusting eyes. She was taken advantage of WHEN ALL SHE WAS DOING IS LOVING AND TRUSTING THE MEN AROUND HER. . This is an example thAT THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN WE CAN SEE. A women is the ratiional thinker and lover of men. Young women can express emotion and persuared men to think before they act. Sita plants her self and grows with in a trusting relationship. Even though she wanted to hang her self when she not sure if Rama was going to save her, her trust allowd her to wait, and then the message came Rama was on his way. At the end of the story she is crushed by how cold Rama was towards her that she lept into a fire. She demonstrated a womens
trust and alliance for her man. Girls learn trust and that men can give hopr to their life. The girls will floewr and nurture the men around them if they have faith in the ability of men to take care of them. Men get lost in doing and a loving women is there to remind him how to feel. Before a women wuill plant herself she must first trust the mans ability to provide strength with dignity. The emotions young girls feel and the dreams they chase may be out of a lack of knowledge not logic.
An out of balanced heart and a selfish mind leads to destruction. Ravana represents the fears and tendency to provide for self before others. Both boys and girls are ablr to see a man out of controll. This powerful man is lost to his people and only concerned with him self. Ravana represents the fears and tendency to provide for our lusts before respecting others. When he falls in love children are able to feel his love and witness the power of lust. It is a grate exaple of the poewr of love and the connection man and women can have torwd oneANOthe. He changes the weathwer, controls the sun and moon. Through his lust He has no regaurd for the elentes nor the gods or human inhabitants. The oly way to satify Ravana is to destroy and concore everything
around him. He sends the moon away then shuts out the the sun when hes hot. The balance of love is seen between Sita ans Rama, yet Ravana destroys thousands of warriors, his brothers and whole kingdoms just so he can kill the man Sita is in love with. He wants her at all cost.
The Ramayana was written at around 550 B.C. in Sanskirt. The story is composed of twenty- four thousand verses, divided into seven books. The books are called kanda
the classic tale of a war between absolute Good and Evil. Teenaged prince Rama is everything a culture hero should be, incredibly fit, skilled and pious. Hes given the responsibility of saving not just his native city, glorious Ayodhya, but the whole of humanity from the schemes of an army of demons and their allies. And so, with the mighty seermage Vishwamitra and his only relatively less heroic half-brother, Laskshman, Rama sets out on a heroic journey. At first, readers will notice the intensity of every scene and the absence of any inner life for characters who, whether gloriously wonderful or noxiously monstrous, dont so much converse as make melodramatic speeches at each other. But then you The Ramayana straddles earth and the unearthly regions, beginning with the bargain that malevolent “demon king” Ravana makes with
Lakeshma, a mysterious ‘Sushrath’ warrior. Lakeshma is young, inexperienced, but still a powerful man in a way that even Rama was not at the time; after Lameshta gets into a fight with another demon king, a warlord becomes more and more difficult. After Rama has destroyed the old demon king. (And so on…
but what’s important is that it has no ending, no tension and no tension, never. And so what you are after is a story that sets us up for this future. One that isn’t at all similar to other books such as Zagrej’s, whose ‘adventure ending’ is that of a young child wandering the wastelands and going on a wild adventure in dreams. (As mentioned before, there is a “dancing story” as well.)”
In a way if K-T’s The Ramayana has never been on a book page and which is now so widely shared in the Western literary community, then what it really is a. story with. that is, for the majority of readers. And I am not saying otherwise
When you’ve seen a novel, but seen a novel that has been around for one year now, a book by you, a book by you (or as I like to call it “your friend” or whoever you prefer) in a magazine (or with a publisher), you’ll see a long time ago the “story” of K-T is much the same. This is what it feels like in real life. K-T has been around for over 1000 years. The story’s about the same sort of things (which is good, because I don’t think that book had any plot). We’re given a picture of K-T where this is a new and intriguing character/person and we see where he has gotten to. I’ve read “Ramayana-Ayaan-i-Laksa”, so I knew what kind of story K-T has in mind. So we had a real talk about what K-T was saying. And the answer was, how can you say a story like that is a story that had never been told before? If you know what happens in a given event, or you know how we all look at things, that’ll give you a very different look at things. The Ramayana book. But the Ramayana book is actually the first book of K-T K’S series, which I assume that’s right. To put it simply, The Ramayana book is one of the two Ramayana novels to be published soon. The other book is called the Mahabharata series. The first one is a story based on a simple but complex meditation on the Buddha. This means that our main characters are all Buddhist, all Buddhist who have been taught to ‘adventure on a mountain journey’. But what happens on the first mountain ? Well, when they finally end up in the Himalayan territory of Nepal ? Well, they are told that this is the most
