Rama: A Man of Dharma by Priya Arora

 Rama: A Man of Dharma by Priya Arora | Book Review

Rama

On the onset of the new year, I wished to imbibe certain moral values, so I was looking for a Hindu epic that shares courageous stories and shows me a path of life in a simpler manner. In my quest of deciding the epic, I stumbled upon a retelling of Ramayana, "Rama: A Man of Dharma". 

The Ramayana is a model of nobility that stresses dharma, or uprightness, courage, truth, and ethical quality. 'Rama: A Man of Dharma' is a retelling of Valmiki's Ramayana and is an investigation of India's most prominent stories through another point of view.

The book is divided into 7 sections and contains each significant piece of the original epic, from the birth of Rama to his initial life and marriage with Sita, his exile, Sita's abduction, the last fight with Ravana, the return to Ayodhya, leaving Sita, the birth of Luv and Khushi, and a few more. 

Indeed, even as a retelling, the story remains nearby the original Valmiki Ramayana. The book draws out the essence of the first without settling on the content. The focus of the book is on the lessons granted by Lord Rama, be it regard for elderly folks, authority, penance, or equity.

It doesn't end with "The Re-visitation of Ayodhya." There's a part called Epilogue, which incorporates the narrative of Hanuman, Magma, and Kusha and The Finish of Rama's Rule.The sections are not excessively extensive, and the composing style is exceptionally captivating. The jargon is rich, still effectively reasonable. 

The supplements segment is brimming with plentiful facts which I completely delighted in reading. It examines the accuracy of Rama as a man or fantasy. It likewise has important lines from the Valmiki Ramayana. It examines the Vedic idea of God, Dharma, and so on and so forth.

It closes with a part on the message of the Ramayana, which is so valuable.I find summing up the huge text of the Valmiki Ramayana is definitely not a simple errand; it would require a superb measure of energy to show this, and I'm happy that the writer did, and presently her book will show the tale of our sacred texts and will promote it, and it will give individuals another expectation, subsequent to being familiar with our God Rama and his fans who upheld all through his excursion.

Whenever I read about Ram and Sita, I feel vigorous, and my heart advises me to be in the story perpetually. I feel reading this epic in a simpler yet impactful manner makes you know more about epics. I am longing to read more epics retelling from the author.

Highly recommended!

I had heard about meditation and its techniques to apply in your daily routine, but when I stumbled upon this book, my myths w...
