THE RAMAYANA--THE SACRED STORY OF ENLIGHTENED LIFE

 

The Great Epic of Dharma is Now Available on Audio Cassette

 

I have always been enchanted by the mythical richness and depth

of the Ramayana. Knowing of your interest in spiritual knowledge and

enlightenment, I thought you would like to hear about this new

production.

 

My production company, Vedic Audio Knowledge, has recently

released the historic first audio recording of the Ramayana--a

dramatic reading in English of the unabridged "Ramayana of Valmiki".

Volumes I and II (of 3)are available now.

 

"The greatest spiritual record of mankind" is how Joseph Campbell

described the wisdom of the Vedas. If you distill all this wisdom

into one extraordinary story, that is the Ramayana.

 

The Ramayana is the story of God who came to earth as man to

purify the world of negativity and restore Truth and Light into the

hearts of everyone. The story unfolds as Rama--the supreme hero--is

united with his beloved Sita, encounters separation from love, and

finally overcomes these challenges, transforming the world

 

All sacred stories have magic, and the Ramayana seems to

have a special power. Great sages, throughout the ages, have

recognized this power of the Ramayana to purify heart and mind. As

you listen to this story, deep and profound impressions are made

which cultivate true inner greatness--wholeness of life.

 

Listening to this unabridged audio production also has two

special values: first, the Ramayana was traditionally meant to be

heard. By listening to the Ramayana, as part of its original oral

tradition, your experience goes much deeper (plus it's convenient to

listen to while you drive!).

 

Second, this unabridged production gives you the full value of

the work. The Ramayana, as with all Vedic literature, contains its

power in the order and sequence of all the words. Any abridgment of

this would lessen the inner magic. You'll find the results you

receive from listening are very transformational and transcendental.

 

Here are the details:

 

*The Ramayana translation chosen for this production is the

superb rendering by renowned Indian journalist, N. Raghunathan.

*The reader on Volume I is Richard Ross, a master storyteller

with a beautiful voice. The reader on Volume II is the talented

Shakespearean actor, Stephen White.

*Volume I of a 3-volume set contains the first two books of the

Ramayana: Bala and Ayodhya Kandas. Volume II contains the next three

books: Aranya, Kishkindha and Sundara Kandas. Volume III (the final

volume) will be released in late 2001.

*Each volume looks like a treasure, bound in a beautiful custom

gold case. Each set also contains an annotated guide outlining the

contents of each cassette.

*Retail price: Volume I--14 ninety-minute cassettes--$98 US

Volume II--16 ninety-minute cassettes--$99.95 US

*To order, call toll-free: 1-888-867-4396

(Int'l calls: 1-641-472-8697)

This is sacred knowledge for a time on earth which needs the

deepest inspiration to restore ''wholeness of life'. Please consider

this audio production of the Ramayana for yourself and your community.

 

Sincerely,

Michael Sternfeld, Producer
