Dear Vanamamalai Group Members,

 

I have really enjoyed listening to this new audio production of the

Ramayana. The company that produces it does so as essentially a non-

profit service. I thought you would like to hear about it, too. You

can contact the producer directly by email at ram or visit

their website at http://www.RamayanAudio.com (and you can hear audio

samples of the audio Ramayana on the website).

Here's the information:

Dear Friend,

 

As a lover of Vedic wisdom, I have always been enchanted by the

richness and depth of the Ramayana. Since we seem to share a

reverence for the Vedic tradition, 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 are available now.

 

The knowledge from the Vedic tradition is so vast and

profound...and the Ramayana makes this wisdom accessible in the form

of a grand epic story. The Ramayana is the story of the supreme hero--

Rama--whose divine mission was to purify the world of ignorance and

restore Truth and Dharma into the hearts of everyone.

 

There have been several abridged versions but no one has ever

taken the time to read and record the entire, unabridged Ramayana.

This preserves the Ramayana in its pure form--as an oral tradition

(as all the branches of Vedic literature were originally intended to

be handed down, generation after generation). Also, this unabridged

production offers a rare glimpse into Vedic civilization by including

the many profound details left out of abridged versions--such as the

origin of the great river Ganges, the battle between the great rishis

Vishwamitra and Vasishta, and the mysteries of master architect, Maya.

 

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.

*The producer/director is Michael Sternfeld, who has also

produced a full theatrical production of the Ramayana.

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

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 2002.

*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

Wholesale terms are available.

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

(International callers: 641-472-8697), or

*Visit us at our Website: http://www.RamayanAudio.com (online

ordering available).

 

 

We are sure that you or anyone who listens to this beautiful gold-

bound set will feel blessed by its power and influence in their

lives. A very special Holiday gift to the Self of anyone!

 

With the blessings of Rama,

 

Michael Sternfeld
