Re: From reading Ramayana...
Namaste
Every time you read Srimad Valmiki Raamayan you ll learn something new and enchanting. Raamayan has recorded the history and culture of ANCIENT INDIA very well. It displays scientific excellence of our ancestors. You ll find every thing like how to protect the dead body or build bridge across ocean or kind of human cloning.
Every word in the EPIC poem has got something to offer. Being the first poem in Sanskrit I just cant stop wondering at the way Sri Valmiki has played with words.
I am yet to understand the spritual meaning behind few incidents narrated in Uttara Kaanda.
Is Uttara Kaanda a later addition as assumed by few.

Ofcourse, Ramayana has a lot to offer beyond the messages conveyed by people in it... Thanks for bringing in this perspective!
Cheers!

Sugriva and the Vaanaras present Sri Rama with the ornaments of Seetha that she threw at them in an attempt to grasp their attention while being carried away. In tears Rama holds them to his heart͵ and asks Lakshmana͵ doesnt he recognize them. Lakshmana replies͵
Naaham Jaanami keyuuRe Naaham Janaami kankaNe
Nuupure Tvaabhijanaami Nityam paadabhivandanaat.
I dont recognize the keyuRa and kankaNa - (ornaments worn on the upper part of the body). But the Nuupura I recognize͵ from my practice of prostrating at her feet daily.

8) The giving up of Sita - due to which Ramayana is celebrated in the form of the epic͵ for millennia
Re: From reading Ramayana...
Ramayana is the very great epic which is so interesting to read at any time when compared to other epics.
