There are many versions of this Epic but I haven’t found one that explains and engrosses like this one. The story is ancient and has many life lessons to learn from all the characters and events. The author has taken time to explain in lay man’s terms Veda philosophy that is so prudent in today's world.
A must read for Yoga lovers or anyone wanting a in-depth knowledge of Hinduism. Loved it!
Praise & Reviews
The author has diligently and masterfully 'connected the dots' across myriad of events and characters in this epic story to help distill the true meaning and relevance in today's world. Her superb knowledge of various ancient scriptures and Vedas complements the Ramayana storyline with much needed context and 'so what' that truly make this book distinctive.
Ramayana is a treasure trove of details and nuances about Vedic life and the Ramayana period. Arora's research is impeccable, and she presents the information in a way that is easy to understand and digest. I learned so much about this fascinating time in history, and I feel like I have a much deeper understanding of the Vedic way of life. Despite the depth of the material, the book is a joy to read and never feels overwhelming. I highly recommend this book!!
