We would like to introduce Ramayana with the following bhajan, which will give you the essence, why it is important to understand RAMAYANA. (Well, this bhajan is very special to me!)

हमें निज धर्म की शिक्षा सिखाती नित्य रामायण । कपट छल छन्द से बचना बताती हमको रामायण ॥ कपट संसार सागर से जो होना पार तुम चाहो । त्याग कर मोह और माया पढ़ो तुम नित्य रामायण ॥ ह्रदय मन्दिर के भीतर जिनके है कुछ ज्ञान औ भक्ति । उन्हें सदमार्ग की शिक्षा सिखाती नित्य रामायण ॥ पिता माता व भ्राता में बढ़े नित प्रेम की धारा । यही है सार दुनियाँ में बताती जो कि रामायण ॥ दीन दुखियों की सेवा में लगाना अपने धन मन का । करना निज देश की सेवा बताती हमको रमायण ।। बनाकर दास तुलसी ने किया उपकार दुनियाँ का । ह्रदय में प्रेम की धारा बहाती नित्य रामायण ॥ करें विनती यह गोवर्दृन पढ़ो नित प्रेम से इसको । प्रेम भक्ति का सागर है, अनूठा ग्रन्थ रामायण ॥

This was the most expensive TV show produced during the time with a budget ₹9 Lakhs per episode, and went popular so madly that the series had a viewership of 82 per cent, a record high for any Indian television series. RAMAYANA notably broke viewership for any Indian television series during that time. It was telecasted in 55 countries and at a total viewership of 650 million, it became the highest watched Indian television series by a distance!

It starred ARUN GOVIL(as RAM), DEEPIKA CHIKHALIA(as SITA) and SUNIL LAHRI(as LAKSHMAN). A short summary of the story is presented as follows : The series follows the journey of RAM who goes to an exile of 14 years along with SITA and LAKSHMAN, which was given by RAM’s father DASHRATH(king of Ayodhya) due to the promise that DASHRATH did to RAM’S step-mother KAIKEYI.

This urged RAM to attack the kingdom of RAVANA; which he did with the help of his friend SUGREEVA and his ‘Vanar Sena’, whose main fighter was HANUMAN, and he was a great devotee of LORD RAM. The whole army fought with the demons of RAVANA with the help of RAM, and the brother of RAVANA- VIBHISHANA, who knew all the secrets of all the demons. They killed great warriors like MEGHNATH, KUMBHKARANA and the other demons visciously. Although RAVANA had 10 Torsos, but he was killed by shoting him in his Navel, as suggested by VIBHISHANA.
