Synopsis

The Sundar Kanda is the beautiful chapter from the Ramayana, which is a divinely inspired Indian epic. Ram has lost His wife Sita, and on his search for her, he meets a whole host of monkeys and bears who assist him in his search. The Beautiful Chapter of Tulsidasa’s Ramayana is filled with deep philosophy, examples and admonitions of how to behave with the purest ethical behavior. It is great fun to chant, and the end of the book includes the Rama Stuthi, Hanuman Chalisa, Bajaranga Bana, Samkata Mochana, Hanuman Arati, Jai Jagdish Hare and Raghupati Raga, as well as other additions. Roman and Bengali transliterations have been included along with the original Hindi and English translation.  Now Devotees around the world can join in singing and understanding this fascinating scripture, which is both a depiction of the ideals of perfect behavior and an allegory of the odyssey of the Soul.

About this title

About the Author:

When Swami Satyananda's guru invited him to trek into the Himalayas, he asked what he should bring along. "Nothing," came the reply. Fifteen years later, Swamiji knew the mountain pathways as well as the Hindu systems of worship. His numerous books and translations of ancient Sanskrit texts are available all over India, as well as in the United States, and he is widely regarded as a Master of the ancient Vedic fire ceremony and other systems of worship. Now Swamiji invites us to trek into the Himalayas and listen and learn from the sadhus of the mountains.
