Description
Timeless epic of the ancient Indic civilisation, narrated as a Galactic Saga...
An epitome of literary achievement from the bygone epoch, R?m?yan has been retold many times in the past. Believed to have been recorded during the dawn of civilisations on planet Earth, its real origin is still shrouded in mystery.
Did the oldest known epic of mankind originate a few thousand years ago? Or... is it part of our ancient and forgotten pre-history? Was it about events within the terrestrial landscape of planet Earth alone? Or... was it within the context of a space-faring civilisation that spanned the entire galaxy? Did Sage Valmiki record it factually? Or... did he reconstruct it, based on fragmentary records salvaged after a terrible global catastrophe known as Pralay that happened much later, around 11500 BCE?
Many millennia before the Pralay, Earth was a relatively insignificant planet that was part of a highly advanced galactic civilisation, dominated by the Vy?rthi Federation and the Lankan Empire. Rama, the exiled Prince of the Kosala Kingdom, is forced into an arduous quest to rescue his wife, Sita, from the distant planet of Lanka. With support from a tribe of Vanars from the world of Kishkinda, he launches a bold and unprecedented military campaign against Lankapuri - the capital city of the Lankan Empire.
How did the Vanar warrior Hanuman search out the exact location of Sita? How did Rama mobilise an entire army across the interstellar void between Kishkinda and Lanka? How did he confront R?van, the legendary Emperor of Lanka? How did those galactic-scale events of ancient times unfold?
While the theme of this book is based on what we've learnt through astrophysics over the past century, as well as cosmology mentioned in ancient scriptures, the author has attempted to project both science and spirituality as inseparable sides of the same coin. The reader may occasionally need to refer to the glossary to understand the full meaning of certain Sanskrit words.
