Guest guest Posted August 6, 2003 Report Share Posted August 6, 2003 Date:05/08/2003 URL: http://www.thehindu.com/thehindu/br/2003/08/05/stories/200308050066030 0.htm Message of the Ramayana RAMAYANA: Alladi Kuppuswami; Copies available from the author, 3-6- 226/1, Himayatnagar, Hyderabad-500029. Rs.50. SEVERAL BOOKS on the story of Rama have appeared in English and other languages and the book under review by the former Chief Justice of Andhra Pradesh is a fine account of the important portions in simple but effective words to convey the main message that a man should adhere to the Law of Dharma. Among the scores of the translated works of the Ramayana, this edition will be widely read by the modern generation who need to be told about India's cultural and spiritual heritage. A few Sanskrit verses from the story, chosen with care, spell out the themes handled in the poem, like "character", "fate" and "Truth" and are very instructive.
