Description English edition, based on a translation of the original Ramayana by Valmiki, produced by a group of ISKCON devotees coordinated by Bhakti Vikasa Swami. First told by the poet Valmiki in 24,000 Sanskrit verses more than 20,000 years ago, and then memorized and retold by Valmiki’s disciples and passed down from generation to generation, the Ramayana has been central to Indian life. It has been the basis for understanding morality and spirituality for millennia.
