New Delhi, 1 October (IANS) has long been revered as the major religious epic of India, an integral component of its religious and cultural landscape, and has been very familiar to the population due to its several times of its presentations, especially in visual media and Ramalils, Cosmic Dulism, Religious Duties, and Hindus have its main way.
When there is a decline with insight and discretion, the work of the sage Valmiki offers a wide spectrum of life lessons beyond morality, morality and fate – not only from the operation of the leading hero of the work, but his opponents, big and small, to the prince of Ayodhya, to the praises of his demon king below.
And this is the one who is a marketing strategist, storyteller, and fond reader, Talari Anand Mahesh, ‘Unlocking the knowledge of Ramayana’ (One Point Six Technologies Pvt.
As he notes, “victory of evil over good” is considered the central theme and message of Ramayana, and while it is right, a lot is to be obtained from it.
The author says that he offers the epic “full of knowledge, much rich than any visual medium,” every word, story, and side story offers “as” in these texts “as many people ignore, because they cannot take time to read our full texts and help people to convey messages.
Mahesh, who has helped writers, brands, and idea leaders in hypnotic stories, thus wants to distinguish the permanent texts of the respected epic in a accessible form to understand and imitrse the 21st century audiences, because “We need a new approach to present these teachings for today’s family and youth.”
Emphasizing that he does not try to introduce the “complete retailing” of the Ramayana or the “unique interpretation” of his lessons, he says that he only aims to “extract lessons” that can help us both in our personal and business life.
Mahesh also admits that when his effort is inspired by Valmiki’s work, especially the translation of the late Bibek Debroy, he has taken “comprehensive creative freedom”, adopting dialogue, routes and conditions for a “fine exploration” for the “relevant of the lesson” of both characters. Thus, there is a little content in the interpretation of some characters and situations to reflect the intended insight – which the reader must take into account.
Before coming appropriately on lessons, he gives us a brief, yet attractive account of how Valmiki came to know that he was equal to the work of the epic, and an encapsulation of its seven ‘Kandas’, “Bala Kanda” to “Bala Kanda” to “North Kanda” (although he notes is considered a later interpolation).
In all, the 40 -odd lessons are presented in this work – with the final combination of all lessons – ideal life, morality, justice, forgiveness, humility and blessings, stress and peace, diplomacy, decision, duty and luxury, loyalty, and crossing many other aspects and issues of human condition.
‘Unlocking the knowledge of Ramayana’ is a commendable effort to go beyond the optics of an epic that teaches us about ourselves and how we live our lives.
Even more importantly, only the inspiration to go beyond the text and consider how some issues remain and some values remain stable.
