Literary gem in lit lakara
This is a wonderful collection of verses in Samskritam, accompanied by translations in English.
The poet and scholar Shri Jayaraman has selected beautiful instances from the Ramayana, bringing to our attention the blemishless beauty of Lord Rama's character.
Readers familiar with the Ramayana will find interesting aspects of Samskritam here.
Readers familiar with Samskritam will learn more not only about Shri Rama and others in the Ramayana, but some finer aspects of Sanatana Dharma as well.
Rama-rasam
Poet, scholar and teacher, Dr Jayaraman's dedication to Samskritam is evident in his work, Paroksha Ramayanam- the book contains an invocation, and 50 slokas along with meaning in English and colourful pictures .
The composition captures the beauty of Rama-avataram and the essence of Rama-rajyam. Rama is a Yugapurush undoubtedly. The intention of composing in lit lakara so that the timelessness of Ramarasa might be had by the chanting of these slokas in current times is inspiring.
That one can chant the entire Ramayanam in 50 simple slokas is humbling.
