The Ramayana - A New Retelling of Valmikis Ancient Epic with Linda Egenes

Published: Nov. 15, 2016, 4 p.m.

One of the most important literary works of ancient India, the Ramayana has deeply impacted all aspects of world culture. Not just a literary monument, it is a living cultural and spiritual guide for over a billion people in India, Southeast Asia, Indonesia and beyond.\n\nConsisting of 24,000 verses in seven books, this grand story can be cumbersome to navigate for the modern reader, even in translation. It is for this reason that long-time Transcendental Meditation practitioners and Ayurveda book authors Linda Egenes and Dr. Kumuda Reddy have put together a delightfully straightforward retelling in THE RAMAYANA: A New Retelling of Valmiki's Ancient Epic\u2014Complete and Comprehensive.\n\nJoin Linda Egenes, and me on Tuesday, November 15, 10-11 A.M. CT US. We will be discussing her journey as a writer into all things sustainable, and the lucid and eminently readable adaptation of The Ramayana.
