Questioned by Sri Rama, Vishvamitra tells him more about the birth of Taataka, of her marriage with Sunda, as well as about the birth of Maareecha as a result of their union, and how the latter was subjected to an execration by sage Agastya, and finally urges Sri Rama to despatch the ogress.

This podcast includes an authentic Sanskrit recitation and the reading of a genuine translation in English by Gita Press, Gorakhpur, India. This is not a western translation of the Valmiki Ramayana, nor a re-telling in any form. It is translated by Hindus from within the tradition, and it is thereby recommended as the most authentic recitation and English reading available. The Ramayana recitation by Sriram-ghanapaathi HariSitaramamurti-ghanapathi is taken from archive.org. The reading is from the English version of Srimad Valmiki Ramayan translation by Gita Press, Gorakhpur, India.
