Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 Dear Bhagavatas This episode does not figure either in Adhi Kavi Valmiki's Srimad Ramayanam (which is considered to be the only authentic one) nor in Kamba Ramayanam as far as my knowledge goes. Can anyone tell in which Ramayanam this popular story appears? Dasoham Anbil Ramaswamy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 18, 2000 Report Share Posted January 18, 2000 Hi I am glad there is Jagananathar Perumal temple is being built and all that, but I still have a benefit of doubt in one aspect of the story !!! We all know that there are plenty of Ramayans written by various authors etc, but the key is to follow the Authentic, which is Valmiki's Ramayan. According to Valmiki Rama never Worshiped Navagrahas, or any of that Nature. So its just a thought I thought I would share, that’s all !!! Thank you and take care folks KK --- SRI_THIRUMALAI <Sri_Thirumalai wrote: > Recently when I had visited India, I got an > opportunity to visit > 'Devipattinam' or 'Nava Paashaanam' in Ramnad > District in Tamil Nadu. > Bhakti members may already know about this Kshetram. > In this kshetram, > there is a Jagannathar Koil.
